On Tuesday, Hunter Renfroe launched his 100th career home run in the fifth inning of the Red Sox’s 11-7 victory over the Tigers.
The solo blast — Renfroe’s third of the season — gave the Red Sox a 9-3 lead. The ball caromed off the Green Monster seats and back onto the grass, where Robbie Grossman picked it up and lofted it to fans sitting along the left-field line.
The only issue: The homer was Renfroe’s 100th in his career, and the Red Sox had to track down the ball. Red Sox staffers could be seen in the stands discussing terms with the fan who came up with it.
