TV: NESN
Radio: WEEI 850
RESULT OF PRIOR GAME
Boston Red Sox 3, Detroit Tigers 2 (W: Rudy Seanez, L: Todd Jones, SV: Jonathan Papelbon)
Sox Star of the Game: Kevin Youkilis- 4 AB, 1 H, 1 R, 2 RBI, 1 HR (GW)
Game Notes: YOOOOOUK! With 2 out in the ninth, against Tiger closer Todd Jones, Kevin Youkilis launched one deep into the Michigan night to put the Sox ahead for good after a pitchers’ duel of epic proportions. Tonight, the Sox pit knuckleballer Tim Wakefield against the still-young and improving Jeremy Bonderman, looking to give the Tigers their 20th loss of the year. I’ll go on record predicting a big game from David Ortiz, who should be breaking out of his prolonged slump any day now.
