After the game, Service, who lasted 11 seasons in the National League, embraced his young catcher and then spoke of him as a proud father.
“Wow, Cal Raleigh, 21 home,” Service said. “It kind of collected the season.”
Rally started slowly into his second season in the big league, hitting 0.129 on June 1. While he’s only hitting .205 now, he’s hit big, tackling the Seattle bowler’s crew and getting even more assertive.
“See how the season started for him and where he is now,” Service said. “I don’t think anyone could have predicted this, but it was there, you just don’t know when it’s coming out.
“Really, really proud of him and not just at home and what he’s done offensively, but the job he’s doing behind the board. He’s making an impact every night whether he gets hit or not.
“I thought he deserved a big hug afterwards.”
Seattle won seven of eight and 12 of 16.
