Raleigh's 39th HR helps halt Brewers' 11-game run

SEATTLE -- Cal Raleigh hit his major league-leading 39th home run of the season, Logan Gilbert tossed 6⅓ shutout innings and the Seattle Mariners ended the Milwaukee Brewers' 11-game winning streak 1-0 on Tuesday night.

Raleigh, who hadn't homered since July 11 against the Detroit Tigers, received an elevated fastball from Brewers right-hander Nick Mears (1-3) and hit it well past the right-field wall.

"I really thought that was an outstanding at-bat," Seattle manager Dan Wilson said. "When you look at the whole approach to the at-bat, I thought he just battled, and was waiting for a pitch that he could drive."

The switch-hitting catcher, who won the All-Star Home Run Derby, provided all the offense on an evening headlined by the pitchers.

"You got the sense that he wanted to be that guy in the big moment tonight," Wilson said of Raleigh. "And he was. He delivered."

Gilbert (3-3) carried a perfect game bid into the fifth inning, and ended up yielding only two singles. The right-hander racked up 10 strikeouts against no walks while needing only 86 pitches to make it into the seventh inning, departing to a standing ovation.

Brewers' rookie sensation Jacob Misiorowski was similarly brilliant. The right-hander struck out seven batters across 3⅔ innings, yielding three hits and walking one. It wasn't until Misiorowski left the game that the Mariners finally pushed a run across and set up closer Andres Munoz for his 22nd save of the season.

According to ESPN Research, the Mariners now have three 1-0 wins this season, tying the Rangers and Pirates for third most in MLB this season behind the San Diego Padres (5) and New York Yankees (4).

"These guys have got great experience," Milwaukee manager Pat Murphy said of the Mariners. "Raleigh is one of the best hitters in the game right now, and this team over there is loaded. And they are very formidable."

The Brewers' 11-game win streak, meanwhile, was two victories shy of the Minnesota Twins for the longest win streak in the majors this season. The Twins won 13 consecutive games from May 3 to 19.
