Bellingham, WASports

Trevor Story's two-run homer propelled the Boston Red Sox to a 3-1 victory over the Seattle Mariners on June 18. Garrett Crochet delivered an impressive performance, pitching six innings while allowing just one run and striking out eight batters. The Red Sox took an early lead in the second inning with a solo shot from rookie Marcelo Mayer. The Mariners tied the game shortly after when Randy Arozarena scored on a wild pitch, but they failed to capitalize on a scoring opportunity with two runners on base later in the inning. The Red Sox's strong form continues as they have won 10 of their last 13 games and four consecutive series.

Right-handed reliever Greg Weissert earned his third save after a scoreless ninth inning. The Mariners and Red Sox both have a day off before continuing their respective seasons against different opponents. This victory highlights the Red Sox's resilience and competitive edge as they aim for postseason contention.
