After spotting the Seattle Mariners a five-run lead by the top of the third inning, the Red Sox reeled off six unanswered runs to claim a 6-5 comeback victory Saturday for their fourth win in a row and fifth win in their last six tries.

The Sox didn't lead until the bottom of the eighth when Franchy Cordero belted a one-out triple and rode home on a Wall ball single from Christian Vazquez. Rafael Devers homered twice -- a solo shot in the third and a two-run belt in the fifth -- to key the comeback.

Five Red Sox relievers combined to provide six shutout innings of relief, with Matt Barnes closing the door in the ninth for his second save.
