The Tigers, in Boston becoss
It's time to show the Red Sox who's boss
Austin Jackson went deep
His mates went to sleep
Which got them a seven-three loss
-----------------------------------------
The Pretenders' effort was as bad as that bit of poetry. They did take a 1-0 lead on Jackson's homer leading off the game, but the Sox peckitty-pecked their way back in the game (peckitty-pecking being an effective way to overcome an early deficit) and put it away via Will Middlebrooks' two run homer in the eighth.
Max Scherzer wasn't sharp (seven hits, five runs in six-plus), but added to his already baffling season totals by striking out nine.
