Game 61 Tigers vs. Red Sox June 10, 2017

Apparently the first 6 innings this season are the better ones..

NOTABLE:
Verlander walked four batters, but he ultimately allowed only three runs in five innings. He left with the game tied 3-3.
Verlander exited his last start with groin tightness but appeared to show no limitations on Saturday night.

ROARS:
Justin Upton ? after a double in the sixth that would have been a home run anywhere else but Fenway, Upton scored the tying run off a Mikie Mahtook double. He?s also now extended his hitting streak to nine games.
Upton then failed to catch a Mitch Moreland hit to left field that ultimately allowed the two go-ahead runs to score. Maybe we can count this as a mew rather than a roar.

HISSES:
Mitch Moreland ? Officially a Tiger-killer now. Yesterday he rocked Zimmermann. He continued to prove himself the bane of the Tigers? pitching staff tonight, getting the go-ahead double in the seventh. He had two hits, a walk, and three RBIs tonight. This season he has seven doubles and six RBIs against Detroit. Mitch, please.

Arcenio Le?n ? the woes of the Tigers? bullpen continue. Both Warwick Saupold and Arcenio Le?n struggled to keep the runs low, and both ultimately helped Boston widen the gap. Saupold gave up three runs on four hits. Le?n managed to hit first base umpire Alfonso M?rquez with a wild toss meant to cover first base. Then he walked in the 10th run of the game. He ultimately allowed five runs to score on four hits.

STREAKS & INFO:
Countdown time! Victor Martinez, who collected one hit tonight, is now only nine hits shy of the 2000 hit mark.

Like Upton, Nicholas Castellanos extended his hit streak to nine games.
