The Seattle Mariners beat the Boston Red Sox 8-3 on September 2, 2026, at Fenway Park. Seattle produced 12 hits, drew five walks, and drove in six runs without a home run, using steady traffic rather than extra-base power to build its margin. Boston also collected 12 hits, but its offense converted those chances into only three runs, with one homer and just one walk. The Mariners’ pitching staff limited Boston despite allowing the same hit total, issuing one walk and permitting three earned runs while recording five strikeouts. Boston’s pitchers gave up 12 hits, walked five, and allowed seven earned runs, while the Red Sox also committed one error. The 11 combined runs cleared the 8.5 Vegas total, driven more by Seattle’s sustained offensive pressure and Boston’s control issues than by a home-run surge. Seattle’s ability to separate despite matching Boston’s hit total should help its run differential moving forward.
