Cal Raleigh busted out of a season-long slump with the first three-homer game of his career Monday night. The switch-hitting catcher capped a five-run first inning with a two-run shot off struggling Philadelphia Phillies ace Zack Wheeler. Raleigh added a leadoff homer against Wheeler in the fifth and a solo drive off reliever Chase Shugart in the seventh to give him 17 home runs this season. It was the first multihomer game of the year for Raleigh, who finished 3 for 3 with a walk in a 9-2 victory and raised his batting average from .159 to .167. Raleigh was runner-up for the AL MVP award last year, when he led the majors with 60 home runs and added 125 RBIs. Reporting by The Associated Press.
