Red Sox Take Down Tigers, 2-1
Navin Field was the site of a tense game between the Detroit Tigers and Boston Red Sox.

Boston Red Sox pitcher Rube Evans was in fine form, leading his team past the Detroit Tigers, 2-1. Guy Morton, credited with the win, is now 9-10. He allowed no runs on no hits. Picking up the save was Johnny Tillman. He's now 9 for 11 in save chances.

The game was at a stalemate until pinch hitter Miller Huggins came to bat in the top of the 11th. Facing Detroit pitcher Bill Steen, he hit a full count fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Boston on top, 2-1.

Evans was in a reflective mood after the contest. \nHe told the Boston Citizen, "Every game is it's own challenge. That's what keeps the competitive fire alive."

The victory gives the Red Sox a record of 40-40.
