Mariner magic returns, the M's are still in the mix
On June 17, 2025, Seattle Mariners' Cal Raleigh led his team to an 8-0 victory over the Boston Red Sox with a grand slam and six RBI. This performance, alongside Bryan Woo's impressive one-hit pitching over seven innings, underscores the Mariners' potential as they aim for a playoff spot. Currently in a playoff position, the Mariners face a challenging schedule ahead with 90 games remaining in the regular season. Raleigh's grand slam marked his league-leading 27th home run, while his eighth stolen base established a new franchise record for catchers. Manager Dan Wilson highlighted Raleigh's impact, stating, "It's unbelievable, he's unbelievable.
" The Mariners aim to build momentum after overcoming a recent 2-8 stretch, with key players returning from injuries. As the trade deadline approaches, the team seeks to enhance its roster for the playoff push. The Mariners hope to maintain their current standing through the season and into October.
