Cal Raleigh homered twice and drove in six runs, and the Seattle Mariners beat the Chicago White Sox 14-2 on Monday night for their seventh straight victory.
Playing without Julio Rodríguez, who was rested amid a torrid stretch at the plate, Seattle used a fast start to improve to 32-13 since July 1. Luis Castillo pitched seven innings of one-run ball in his third consecutive win.
Raleigh upped his total to 24 homers on the year. It was his fifth multihomer game of the season and No. 7 for his career. Taking advantage of Toussaint's control problems, Seattle pushed across five runs in the first. Toussaint issued four walks in the inning, and three of those baserunners came around to score.
