BOSTON -- A day after Joe Kelly's first relief outing in a Red Sox uniform, the fireballer admitted he was a little amped up during his one inning in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Tigers.
While Kelly consistently hit triple digits on the radar gun, his fastball lacked location and he had trouble getting his secondary pitches over for strikes.
That was the case when Justin Upton smacked a 101-mph heater into right-center for a triple to lead off the seventh inning. He later scored on a single by James McCann.
