Cal Raleigh smoked a fastball over the right field fence for an MLB-leading 45th home run, sparking a Seattle Mariners win over the Tampa Bay Rays in Seattle.

Seattle Mariners slugger Cal Raleigh continues to blast home runs at an astonishing pace this season. He is moving into uncharted territory.

For a long time, it seemed Johnny Bench had an unbreakable record. In 1970, the Cincinnati Reds' legendary catcher walloped 45 home runs. It was the record for a catcher, and it stood for 50 years.
