AI Summary

Luke Raley went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer in the Mariners' 8-3 victory over the Astros, boosting his hard-hit rate to 57.1 percent, among the best in MLB.

Raley also had 105- and 98-mph lineouts to go along with his 102-mph homer and 108-mph groundball single today. That ups his hard-hit rate to 57.1 percent. As a platoon guy, he doesn't have enough plate appearances to qualify for leaderboards, but only six hitters have better hard-hit rates this season (Munetaka Murakami, James Wood, Oneil Cruz, Nick Kurtz, Ben Rice and Michael Harris II).
