Red Sox Drop Contest, 5-4, to Detroit
|
Detroit Tigers starter Francisco Liriano pitched a strong game against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park, leading the Tigers to victory, 5-4. Derek Holland earned the save for Detroit, his 2nd. By defeating Boston, the second-place Tigers improved to 62-44.
Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Whit Merrifield? The Detroit second baseman had a bases-clearing double in the top of the first inning to put the Tigers on top, 3-0. For the game, Merrifield had 2 doubles and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Merrifield. "And not try to do too much."
