The MLB record for single-season home runs by a catcher is 48, set by the Royals' Salvador Perez. Raleigh needs one to tie and two to break it, with more than a month left in the season. It feels like a foregone conclusion at this point, but that won't make the moment any less special.

Raleigh is now one homer shy of matching Salvador Perez's record for a catcher in a single season. Raleigh sent his 47th blast out to left field in the seventh inning, though that was the extent of the Mariners' comeback effort in this neutral-site game.
