Take a look at all of Cal Raleigh's home runs in the first half of the 2025 MLB season for the Mariners

Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh has had one of the most impressive first halves by a catcher in recent MLB history. With a powerful streak leading into the All-Star break, Raleigh isn’t just standing out among catchers; he’s performing like one of the best hitters in baseball.

Cal Raleigh is set to play in his first All-Star Game this week, and the Seattle Mariners star announced Monday that he plans on participating in another iconic baseball event next year.

Raleigh fulfilled another dream by participating, and winning, Monday's Home Run Derby and he brought his family along again. Todd was rewarded with the job of throwing to him. His 15-year-old brother, Todd Jr., took Cal's usual spot behind the plate.

Raleigh will become the second-ever player to switch hit in the Derby ( Adley Rutschman in 2023, lost 2nd round), plus no catcher has ever won the derby. This is year 39 of the event, so odds are against Raleigh despite him being the favorite.
