Tigers Eventually Breakout Against Red Sox

Game 49 @ BOS

It was truly a team effort on the part of the Tigers en route to victory. Ian Kinsler had a big 2 RBI double in the 4th to give the Tigers the lead. This was the Tigers first chance to break through against Roy Oswalt, and they did.

Michael Morse added a run off of a homer in the 5th. Avila doubled twice and scored in the game; Marco Scutaro had a sac fly to cap off the scoring.

All of the Red Sox runs came off of mistakes, not errors though. Fister hung a slider to Jacoby Ellsbury (who doubled in the 1st). Gonzalez drove him in.

After Adam Jones took a bad route to a ball in the outfield, the extra run was driven in on a 2 run homer.

The bullpen closed the door again. No save was necessary, even though Valverde came in for the last out.
