Red Sox Deal Wolverines 3-2 Loss
Detroit got a terrific performance from pitcher Gene Conley, but it wasn't enough to beat the Memphis Red Sox. Memphis won the Tiger Stadium contest, 3-2. Conley threw 7.0 innings of 2-hit ball for the losing team. Jonathan Papelbon got the save, his 13th in 17 chances. The loss makes Detroit 72-59.

Memphis used a clutch hit from Claude Ritchey to get the win. The second baseman drilled a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"I'm a bit of a clubhouse prankster," said Ritchey. "But it's all business when we're on the field."
