Raleigh hit his major-league-leading 27th homer of the season, a grand slam, and added a two-run double while Woo pitched seven scoreless innings of one-hit ball as the Mariners leveled the series with an 8-0 victory against the Red Sox on Tuesday night.

The series' decisive game is set for Wednesday afternoon, when Red Sox ace left-hander Garrett Crochet (6-4, 2.24 ERA) is scheduled to take the mound against Mariners right-hander Luis Castillo (4-4, 3.29).

Raleigh snapped out of a 4-for-27 slump when he singled in the first inning, then belted a slam against Walker Buehler in a five-run second inning. He doubled home two more runs in a three-run fourth.

The homer moved Raleigh above the New York Yankees' Aaron Judge for the top spot in the majors.

"What can you say about Cal ... he's been incredible," Mariners manager Dan Wilson said. "And caught a shutout to boot."

Woo, who was 0-3 in his previous four starts, gave up only a leadoff single to rookie Marcelo Mayer in the fifth. He walked two and fanned six while again pitching at least six innings, something he has done in all 14 of his starts this season.

"He's that stopper when we need a big game from our starter," Raleigh said of Woo. "And he's showing up every time -- Mr. Consistent."

As for Raleigh's own accomplishments?

"It's great, but you know, just trying to keep the head down," Raleigh said. "The minute you look up and start to admire (it all), that's when the game will come around and put you in your place."

Despite winning six of their past seven games, the Red Sox haven't scored more than four runs during any contest in that stretch. Their offensive output doesn't figure to improve after trading disgruntled slugger Rafael Devers, a three-time All-Star, to the San Francisco Giants on Sunday.

"(The lineup) feels good," Red Sox left fielder Jarren Duran said. "We won (2-0 Monday), and (Tuesday) was just one of those days where you run into a great pitcher and he does his thing.

"I don't think anybody is thinking too much about (Devers). We're just focused on the team we have now, and we're going to keep rolling."

Crochet didn't get a decision on Friday against the New York Yankees in a game the host Red Sox won 2-1 in 10 innings. He allowed one run on four hits in 8 1/3 innings, with one walk and seven strikeouts.

Crochet, who had won his previous two starts, is 0-2 with a 4.96 ERA in five career appearances (three starts) vs. Seattle. He lost to the visiting Mariners on April 24 after permitting four runs on five hits and five walks with nine strikeouts in five innings.

Castillo is winless in four starts since May 19, though he is just 0-1 with a 3.52 ERA in that span. He didn't get a decision in Seattle's 7-2 victory against the visiting Cleveland Guardians on Friday despite allowing just two runs on three hits over six innings. He walked three and logged a season-high seven strikeouts.

Castillo is 2-2 with a 4.91 ERA in four lifetime starts against Boston.
