Tigers Get Hard-Earned Win
Detroit and Boston played a hard-fought contest.

The Detroit Tigers got a good effort from starter Luis Muñóz in defeating the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. The final score was 3-2. Detroit pitcher Jairo Diaz earned the win, hiking his record to 1-0. Ted Burton suffered the loss. Tomás Mendoza wrapped it up, recording his 5th save.

Detroit used the timely hitting of Luis Aquino to seize the win. The right fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Tigers on top, 3-2. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

Aquino attributed the win to his team's "determination."

The Red Sox fall to 9-13 and continue their lackluster start in 2026.
