I think this is sweet. (Don't you dare make fun of this little guy!) The ball was just outside Dylan Sylvia's reach, so Red Sox pitcher Josh Beckett did him a solid and handed it to him. Dylan was touched, and visibly emotional.

Hit the jump to see the MLB video. In the second clip, check out the interview with Dylan, his father and grandfather who spoke with NESN after the game. It was the first time all three generations attended a Red Sox game together, and it sure turned out to be a memorable day for young Dylan.

Justin Verlander pitched like he was trying to stop a losing streak. His teammates gave him some early run support, and it was enough for the Tigers to split a day-night doubleheader with a 3-0 win in the second game. Verlander went 7 & 2/3rds innings and threw 132 pitches before Joaquin Benoit got the [...]

Tigers Lose on Pinch-Hit Homer

Stu Allen — Sun, 29 May 2011 20:51:29 +0000

Jose Valverde just isn’t very good in non-save situations. He’s 11 for 11 in save situations this season, but takes a loss after giving up a long home run to pinch-hitter David Ortiz in the 9th inning. Ortiz has faced Valverde twice in his career. Both times the ball ended up in the seats. Tigers [...]

The streaky Detroit Tigers lost their second straight game, this time by a 6-3 score to the Boston Red Sox. Knuckleballer Tim Wakefield stymied the Tigers hitters while Rick Porcello got the bum’s rush after just three innings and six Boston runs.

Tigers Blown Out By Bosox

Max Scherzer didn’t have it today. He was clobbered by the Red Sox for 7 runs in a couple of innings. The game was called in the bottom of the 8th after a lengthy rain delay. It was a merciful gesture to the Tigers, who were down 14-1. Nothing good could have come from finishing this [...]

Tigers Lose Another Heartbreaker 4-3

Stu Allen — Fri, 20 May 2011 02:57:34 +0000

Justin Verlander pitched well enough to win. As usual, his team didn't give him much in the way of help. Verlander pitched eight innings, striking out nine batters and giving up three runs. The Tigers tied the game up in the eighth inning on back-to-back homers from Brennan Boesch and Miguel Cabrera, but couldn't deliver in the clutch when they had a great opportunity.

Tigers Lose To Bosox 1-0

Stu Allen — Thu, 19 May 2011 03:08:35 +0000

The Tigers had their chances. Phil Coke pitched his best game as a Tiger starter, throwing 7 shutout innings. The bullpen and the bats let him down Ryan Perry retired the first two Boston hitters in the bottom of the 8th, before Jim Leyland replaced Perry with the lefty Daniel Schlereth. Schlereth was in there [...]
