Boston – Wouldn’t it figure.
On the night the Tigers’ offense finally breaks out of a 18-game funk, the pitching staff allows double-digit runs.
The Tigers, shutout in two of the three games in New York over the weekend, produced more runs than they had in a game since April 13, but it was still three four runs too short.
The Red Sox built an early 8-3 lead and held on to beat the Tigers Tuesday night 11-7 at Fenway Park. That’s six straight losses for the Tigers, 16 in the last 18 games, but there was some fight to this one.
