BOSTON -- The Tigers expected they would need a lot of runs to keep pace with Bostons potent offense that underwhelmed in Detroits series-opening victory. Daniel Descalso Cubs Jersey .What the Tigers didnt anticipate was being gifted the game-deciding run on a night when the margin of error was small for both teams.Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run home run, Jarrod Saltalamacchia and Tyler Collins each had a pair of RBI and the Tigers roughed up knuckleballer Steven Wright to beat the Red Sox 9-8 on Tuesday night.With the game tied in the sixth, Collins drew a bases-loaded two-out walk, which allowed Justin Upton to score the decisive run.Detroit and Boston combined for 22 hits as both starting pitchers struggled to string together outs throughout the evening.With all the offense from both sides, its kind of ironic that a walk is the difference, Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said.Saltalamacchia, a switch-hitter, had three hits after choosing to hit right handed against Wright. It was the first time hes hit from that side of the plate against a right-handed pitcher in his major league career.Not since Little League, he said with a chuckle.Alex Wilson (1-0) got the victory, and Francisco Rodriguez closed for his 29th save. Detroit won the series opener 4-2 on Monday night.David Ortiz had a three-run home run, but Bostons offense didnt have enough to offset a rare poor outing by Wright, who gave up nine hits and eight runs over 4 2/3 innings. Wright was leading the AL in ERA entering Tuesday.Its tough to keep asking the offense to keep carrying us like that, Wright said.Robbie Ross Jr. (1-2) got the loss.Detroit scored early for the second straight night, this time taking the lead on Cabreras 20th homer of the season.That was followed by RBI singles from Collins and Jose Iglesias in the second inning that made it 4-0.Detroit starter Mike Pelfrey was solid the first time through the order but lost some of his early command the second time around.It started in the third when Boston nearly erased Detroits lead with one big swing by Ortiz. With Mookie Betts and Xander Bogaerts aboard, Ortiz connected on a 3-2 pitch from Pelfrey to drive his 25th of the season over the right-field wall.The Red Sox took the lead back an inning later on an RBI groundout by Brock Holt and an RBI double by Betts.The Tigers continued to get hits against Wright and went back up 8-5 thanks a four-run fifth inning.Boston kept chipping away and used Jackie Bradley Jr.s home run and RBI by Dustin Pedroia and Bogaerts to tie it in the sixth.TRAINERS ROOMTigers: OF J.D.
