Detroit's Justin Upton breaks the game open with a grand slam in the fifth.

Justin Upton's grand slam in the fifth inning broke the game wide open, as the Tigers prevented the Red Sox from sweeping their three-game set on Sunday night. Drew Pomeranz allowed six runs in 4.1 innings, which could have been even worse if not for some outstanding defense by Xander Bogaerts during the early stages of the contest.

My name is Adam Belue, I'm from Fall River, MA, and I'm a sports fanatic. I'll watch and write about just about any and every sport, even the fringe ones that aren't really sports like bowling, poker, and ultimate frisbee. I'm a huge Green Bay Packers fan, and a self-proclaimed New England Patriots hater (and proud of it!)... which makes my job in a sporting goods store quite interesting. I'm a big fan of the other local teams (Bruins, Red Sox, and Celtics), along with the Alabama Crimson Tide and college football as a whole. I may be a bit obsessed (or a lot obsessed) with Taylor Swift, and I've seen her in concert four times so far... some of the best times I've had by the way her concerts are quite the experience! I'm also a huge tennis fan, and have played the sport for a good majority of my life. I wish more people watched and appreciated tennis. I'm currently a part of the Boston Bruins and Boston Red Sox Beat Team on CLNS Radio, and post a weekly fantasy football and college football column during the season.
