Boston — Well, on the plus side for the Tigers, the offense awakened in Boston. They scored 22 runs in the three games at Fenway, that after scoring 10 in the first six games on this trip, through Chicago and New York.
The downside, though, is the pitching and defense faltered, and after losing the finale to the Red Sox, 12-9, on Thursday, the Tigers come home with just two wins for their efforts.
The manner in which the Red Sox won the game in the bottom of the eighth told the tale of the day for the Tigers.
