Red Sox Recover From Blown Lead, Win On Tigers Error In Ninth
The Red Sox can afford to forget that Jonathan Papelbon blew a three-run lead and cost Clay Buchholz a well-earned win.
These days, nothing before the bottom of the ninth matters in Boston.
For the second straight day, the Red Sox rallied against a depleted Detroit bullpen for a walk-off win, beating the Tigers 4-3 on Sunday when pitcher Robbie Weinhardt threw away Marco Scutaro's bunt and allowed the winning run to score.
"It's not the way we wanted to win," said Eric Patterson, who walked in the ninth to move the winning run into scoring position. "But we got it done. It doesn't matter."
