Red Sox Rally Past Tigers in Comeback Thriller
Boston hooks a 6-5 comeback win over Detroit as Jim Rice breaks a hand and is likely out for the season. Rice fractured his fourth metacarpal after being hit, forcing him onto the injury list. The victory tightens Boston’s lead in the AL East to 3½ with five games left, while Detroit closes the season with Milwaukee after visiting New York tonight. Denny Doyle delivered the key two-run double in the ninth to seal the win.
