Willard Nixon pitched a complete game and Billy Klaus went deep and had 2 RBI

at Fenway Park as the seemingly unstoppable Boston Red Sox pulled off a

dramatic comeback beating the Detroit Tigers by the count of 6 to 4.

 

Boston erupted with the game winning runs in the 9th inning scoring 3 runs

using 3 hits.  After an out was recorded, Eddie Joost got things rolling when

he doubled.  Billy Goodman came to the plate and laced a base-hit resulting

in a run.  Klaus then cracked a two-run shot (his 5th of the season) giving

Boston the win and sending the home town fans into a frenzy.  Boston managed

8 hits in their victory.  

 

Nixon(10-10) was the winner allowing 4 runs for the game. Steve Gromek(8-12)

was given the loss in relief.  He was not very effective, surrendering 6 runs

in 2 and 1/3 innings.  

 

With the win, Boston continued their winning ways; their streak now stands at

7 games and counting.
