No one was more impactful than Alex Verdugo in the 7-5 Boston win over Detroit. Verdugo, who leads the AL with a .360 batting average, went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Matt Barnes notched his 16th save in 19 chances. Boston is now 61-81, Detroit 54-88.

Verdugo contributed a big hit, a 2-run double, for Boston in the bottom of the fifth. With his team trailing 2-1, Verdugo took a splitter from Casey Mize and stroked the double to center. His 44th double of the season allowed the Red Sox to leap in front, 3-2.

"Alex is still learning," said Red Sox manager Chad Jennings. "The sky's the limit for him."
