Scuffling 2025 AL MVP runner-up Cal Raleigh comes off the bench to help Mariners beat Yankees

SEATTLE (AP) — While slugger Aaron Judge took batting practice at T-Mobile Park, an advertisement featuring him and Cal Raleigh flashed on the videoboard with a link to buy tickets to the series between the New York Yankees and Seattle Mariners. The reigning AL MVP was in the No. 2 hole for the Yankees on Monday night, but Raleigh, runner-up for that award last year after hitting 60 homers — the most in a season by a catcher — was not in the Mariners' starting lineup for the opener.
