Cal Raleigh hit his 37th and 38th home runs of the season Friday night, pulling within one of Barry Bonds’ record for most homers before the All-Star break as the Seattle Mariners beat the Detroit Tigers 12-3 and snapped Tarik Skubal’s lengthy winning streak.

Ace Tarik Skubal gave up four runs in five innings as Detroit lost its series opener, 12-3, to the Seattle Mariners on Friday.

Cal Raleigh and Aaron Judge are putting on a show similar to what Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa did in 1998. But this chase is better because the 'clean' home run record is at stake.

Athletics slugger Brent Rooker is adding his name to the Home Run Derby that also includes Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh.

The Mariners released a video showing Bryan Woo announcing to his family that he made his first Midsummer Classic.

The Seattle Mariners are currently in a Wild Card spot and another star could propel the team to a deep playoff run.
