Top 1st: Tigers 0, Red Sox 0
Matt Boyd won the first battle of the day, striking out Aaron Hill after an eight-pitch at-bat to leadoff the game. Xander Bogaerts flew out to center field for the inning's second out, but Mookie Betts was able to notch a two-out single through the middle of the infield and Hanley Ramirez singled to center field to put the young Tigers' pitcher in a jam early on.
Boyd was able to escape the jam just one pitch later, however, getting Jackie Bradley to ground out to first to end the inning.
