Detroit — If that was his last start at Comerica Park as a member of the Detroit Tigers, Matthew Boyd made it count.
The Tigers left-hander, his name heavily bandied about in trade rumors leading up to the July 31 trade deadline, battled out of jams and turned in an impressive outing on Tuesday night against the Philadelphia Phillies.
The game went on long after Boyd called it a night, with Philadelphia winning 3-2 on Wednesday morning in a 15-inning affair. Boyd might have said goodbye for good to the 23,607 fans in attendance, earning the no-decision.
