BOSTON (AP) — Trevor Story hit a three-run homer out of Fenway Park, Christian Vázquez added a solo shot for a key run in the seventh inning and the Boston Red Sox beat the Detroit Tigers 5-4 on Tuesday night.
Boston, wearing unusual yellow jerseys with blue trim, went ahead 4-2 in the fourth when Story put a hanging a slider from rookie Beau Brieske (1-6) on Lansdowne Street for his 11th homer this season.
“Just got a pitch kind of in the middle part of the plate and tried not to do too much with it and it worked out,” said Story, who has 48 RBIs in his first season with the Red Sox.
