During a Yankees game, broadcaster Michael Kay advised the crew to refrain from showing close-ups of Cal Raleigh's behind, humorously referencing his nickname, Big Dumper. Despite Kay's requests, the camera repeatedly panned onto Raleigh's posterior, leading to humorous exchanges between Kay and color commentator Paul O'Neill. They discussed Raleigh's history and nickname while Kay tried to shift focus back to the game. Raleigh, who homered during the game, has a mixed relationship with the nickname given to him by former teammates. The Mariners lost the game 10-3.
