Tigers Absorb 3-1 Loss at Fenway Park
Derek Lowe was nothing short of phenomenal for the Boston Red Sox. The 32-year-old right-hander was a big reason his team beat the Detroit Tigers, 3-1. Picking up the save was Jose Acevedo, his 25th. The win elevated the Red Sox to 64-58.

Robert Fick hit a 2-run home run off Greg Maddux in the bottom of the second, which put the Red Sox ahead, 2-0. In addition to the homer, Fick had 1 double, while going 2 for 3.

"I like what I saw today," said Boston manager Robby DeHaan, "and I can't wait to get back out there and do it again."
