Game 51: Record 28-23

Beckett did not need help from Papelbon or really anybody else.

Tigers absolutely dominated by Josh Beckett. They did not get a hit until the 7th inning and did not score until 8th when they trailed 10-0.

Good news is that the Tigers battled until the end. They scored 5 runs in the 8th and left the bases loaded in the 9th. Had Josh Anderson been able to scratch out a hit or walk, it would have brought up the potential tying run in the form of Miguel Cabrera. Too bad it didn't happen.

Beckett's line is: 7.2 IP, 2 H, 3 R, 0 ER, 2 BB, 9 SO.

Very impressive.
