Through Matthew Boyd's first 10 starts for the Detroit Tigers, the left-hander notorious for getting beat by the home-run ball had only allowed three blasts this season. Against the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday, Boyd matched that total before the third inning ended.
But Boyd was in luck.
The Tigers (23-32) scored six times in the second inning en route to an 10-7 win over the Brewers to split the two-game series at American Family Field in Milwaukee. Detroit has won four of its past five games. The teams combined for nine home runs, four by the Tigers.
