Boston — The defending champs came to eat Wednesday.
After losing both ends of the doubleheader Tuesday, the first time they’ve done that since 2015 — the first time they've done it at home against the Tigers since 1965 — and falling to 9-15 on the season, the Boston Red Sox had a little fire in their belly.
They attacked starter Tyson Ross early and cruised to an 11-4 win over the Tigers.
And not coincidentally, the Red Sox offense started to produce just when former Tigers slugger J.D. Martinez heated up. He had a rough day Tuesday.
