| I'm running out of superlatives to describe Julian Tavarez' season. He gets his 11th win in this one, which ties him with Johan Santana for 2nd in the AL behind teammate Josh Beckett's 14. This is his 6th straight start in which he has walked away with a win. He pitches shutout ball for 5 innings, then starts to tire in the 6th and gets pulled for Javier Lopez. No problem - Lopez goes 1 2/3, Okajima pitches the 8th, and Paps nails down the 9th for save #25. Could an all star game berth be in the cards for Tavarez? Possibly, although he's going to face tough competition just from his own teammates. |

The red-hot Boston Red Sox defeated the Detroit Tigers by a score of 4 to 1 at
Comerica Park.
Detroit never recovered after Boston took the lead in the top of the 2nd
inning scoring one runner on 3 hits. Jonathan Papelbon pitched a perfect
ninth and was credited with his 25th save.
The win was credited to Julian Tavarez(11-3) who went 5 and 1/3 innings
allowing 1 run. Andrew Miller(1-2) was given the loss. No one has been able
to stop Boston lately as they lengthened their winning streak to 8 games.
'We're on quite a roll lately' said Terry Francona. 'I just hope we can keep
it going.'
