Alex Verdugo hit a two-run homer, while Reese McGuire returned from the IL with a bang, registering a two-run homer of his own.
Christian Arroyo also had a key two-run double as part of Boston’s three-run fourth inning that eluded the reach of new Seattle outfielder Dominic Canzone, who made his debut after joining from Arizona in a trade on Monday.
“It was just a matter of time. We’re gonna hit. We will hit,” Boston manager Alex Cora said.
Suarez hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning and Ty France had an RBI double in the sixth, while Brayan Bello kept Seattle’s bats quiet. He struck out seven and got a big defensive play to end the sixth inning when Jarren Duran made a sliding catch of Cade Marlowe’s flare that saved a run.
