Boston — Ron Gardenhire didn't want this one to fester, so he had a brief message for his players after they tromped back into the clubhouse.
"I told them, 'We've won two out of three in Boston and we have a chance to win three out of four tomorrow,' " the Tigers manager said. " 'So forget about this one. It's over with. We've got a chance to win three out of four here; let's do it.' "
