Game 51 @ BOS

This game had a lot of unexpected offensive output. Both aces, Verlander and Lester, had pretty bad outings.

Verlander was first to leave, giving up 5 ER (2 HR) in 5 2/3 innings. He was lucky to earn a no decision.

The Tigers teed off on Lester in the 6th. He gave up 8 runs and 17 of the 20 hits.

David Ortiz homered twice, but it wasn't enough. Jacoby Ellsbury thought that he completed the comeback with an RBI single in the 8th.

John Mayberry, Jr's solo homer in the 9th proved to be the winning run.

There is still one more game in this series!
