Raleigh leads in home runs, 35 to 33. The pair are tied in RBI, 74-74. Judge is batting .360 to Raleigh's .268 and leads in OPS, 1.202 to 1.021. The catcher Raleigh leads in steals, 9 to 6.

Cal Raleigh's historic pace for the Mariners shows there's a shot that he can catch up to the Yankees' Aaron Judge in the AL MVP race.

Raleigh is on pace to join Johnny Bench in 1974 and Joe Torre in 1970 as the only players whose primary position was catcher in MLB history to reach 700 plate appearances in a season, becoming too essential on both sides of the ball for the Mariners to rest him. Not that he’d want to, anyway.
