The Sox had a one-run lead, and the Detroit Tigers had runners on first and second with two outs in the sixth inning Friday at Comerica Park.
“To have that opportunity would be cool for me,” Lynn said after Friday’s 8-2 win. “I would cherish it. And I couldn’t have done it without the team behind me if that happens.”
The American League Central-leading Sox didn’t have anyone voted as an All-Star starter. But they should be well-represented for the July 13 game in Denver, particularly from their pitching staff.
