Cal Raleigh blasted his major league-leading 37th and 38th home runs, including a grand slam, and the visiting Seattle Mariners handed Detroit ace Tarik Skubal his first loss since April 2 with a 12-3 victory on Friday night.

Raleigh's multi-homer game was his eighth, tying Ken Griffey Jr. (1997) for the most in a season in Mariners history.

Julio Rodriguez had a two-run homer, while winning pitcher Luis Castillo (6-5) gave up three runs in five-plus innings.

Skubal (10-3), who recorded his 800th career strikeout, allowed four runs in five innings. Riley Greene supplied two hits, including an RBI triple.

Seattle scored a two-out run in the second. Jorge Polanco smacked a single before Donovan Solano hit a sinking liner to right-center. Center fielder Parker Meadows tried to make a diving catch but the ball bounced under his glove and rolled to the wall. Polanco came around to score and Solano reached third on what was ruled a triple.

Detroit had two runners with no one out in the fourth, as Gleyber Torres walked and Wenceel Perez singled. Castillo sat down the next two batters before Zach McKinstry ripped a single to tie it. Castillo appeared to strike out McKinstry on the previous pitch but the umpires ultimately ruled it a foul ball.

Seattle regained the lead in the fifth. Solano reached on a walk and moved up on a one-out grounder. J.P. Crawford knocked him in with a line drive single and Rodriguez took advantage of a hanging Skubal changeup, blasting it over the left-center-field wall to make it 4-1.

Detroit pulled within a run in the sixth. Perez reached on an infield single, stole second and advanced to third on a throwing error. Greene then drilled a triple to right-center to drive him in. Spencer Torkelson brought in Greene with a sacrifice fly.

Raleigh pulled a Tyler Holton changeup over the left field wall with one out in the eighth to give Seattle a two-run lead. His grand slam off Brant Hurter capped a seven-run eruption in the ninth.
