<p>Update the Big Dumper dinger counter.</p>
<p>The Seattle Mariners might have lost 10-3 to the New York Yankees in the Bronx on Tuesday, July 8, but Cal Raleigh hit his 36th home run of the season.</p>
<p>Raleigh's latest tater was noteworthy, particularly for Mariners fans. He passes Ken Griffey Jr. for the most home runs hit by a Mariners player before the All-Star break. Griffey hit 35 before the Midsummer Classic in 1998. Raleigh also continues to close in on Barry Bonds' mark of 39 home runs before the 2001 All-Star break. Bonds finished with a record 73 home runs that season.</p>
