In doing so, he tied Ken Griffey Jr.'s franchise record for most long balls in a single season. Raleigh also broke a record with his first home run, as he passed Mickey Mantle's all-time single-season mark for long balls by a switch hitter. Fittingly, the Mariners star hit a home run from each side of the plate Tuesday as he surpassed Mantle. If he hits six more home runs in Seattle's final 11 games, he would also tie Aaron Judge's American League record for long balls in a season. That would be quite the boost in the American League MVP race, which just so happens to be between Judge and Raleigh.
