Crawford's Three-Run Homer Leads Mariners Past Red Sox 8-5

J.P. Crawford powered the Seattle Mariners to an 8-5 victory over the Boston Red Sox with a three-run home run in the fourth inning and a total of four RBIs, marking his first homer of the season. Right-hander Emerson Hancock delivered a standout performance, striking out a career-high seven batters and allowing two runs over six innings, helping to ease the burden on Seattle's bullpen. The Mariners' bottom of the lineup contributed significantly, with the 7-9 hitters combining for seven hits, five RBIs, and four runs. Seattle's offense has been heating up, with Crawford notably hitting .385 over his last seven games and .333 over his last ten. The game also saw Andrés Muñoz secure his league-leading eighth save of the season, while Boston's late rally fell short despite a three-run homer by Triston Casas. The win evened the series at Fenway Park, with the teams set to conclude their three-game set the following day.
