Worth noting

• Red Sox pitchers have had their way against Seattle this season, posting an 1.48 ERA in eight games vs. the Mariners. It's their lowest mark in a season series of at least six games since 1921.

• Dustin Pedroia entered Wednesday night's game on a 15-game hit streak, the longest active streak in the Majors. During that run, he's hit .393 with two homers and eight RBIs.
