Randy Arozarena powered Seattle's offense throughout the night, homering and driving in runs as the Mariners repeatedly answered Boston's rallies. Jarren Duran and Ceddanne Rafaela supplied important moments for the Red Sox, while Story delivered the final blow.
Boston's early response came when Mickey Gasper homered after Seattle opened the scoring, and Duran's homer brought Nick Sogard home as the Red Sox took the lead. After Arozarena's homer and single brought Seattle level, Rafaela's single scored Connor Wong and Roman Anthony. Dominic Canzone's double then brought J.P. Crawford and Arozarena home, and Cal Raleigh's homer extended Seattle's lead. Boston answered with Story's double, Rafaela's sacrifice fly that scored Anthony, and finally Story's sharp single that brought Eli White across the plate.
