The team confirmed the news via a social media post featuring a charming photo of the twins, wrapped in Mariners-themed blankets, with the caption: “Double the blessings for the Raleigh family! Congratulations to Cal and his wife on welcoming their twins into the world.
Cal Raleigh, affectionately nicknamed “Big Dumper” by fans, has become one of the Mariners’ most beloved and reliable players over the years.

Teammates and fans quickly flooded social media with heartfelt messages of love and support. Mariners manager Scott Servais expressed his excitement in a press conference, saying, “Cal has been a cornerstone for our clubhouse, and we couldn’t be happier for him and his growing family. It’s a very special moment.”
Fans at T-Mobile Park also showed their support by displaying congratulatory signs and even starting a “Raleigh Twins” chant during the team’s morning warm-ups. The team is expected to honor the moment with a special tribute during their next home game, possibly including a video montage or ceremonial first pitch featuring the family.
While Raleigh is expected to take a short paternity leave, fans are thrilled to know he’s enjoying such a monumental life experience. His return to the lineup will undoubtedly carry an extra dose of motivation and joy.
This touching family milestone adds to what’s already shaping up to be a memorable season for the Mariners. With playoff hopes high and team spirit stronger than ever, the birth of the Raleigh twins brings even more magic to Seattle’s summer.
