Last night, David Ortiz hit a grand slam to get the Boston Red Sox back to within a run in the bottom of the 9th in their eventual 6-5 loss to the Detrot Tigers. Today, Big Papi came to bat with the bases loaded in the bottom of the 9th and the Red Sox trailing 4-2.
Tigers skipper Jim Leyland decided to intentionally walk Kevin Youkilis to get to Ortiz who had been 0-for-8 against Phil Coke. Well we can now make it 1-for-9 with a double and three RBIs for Big Papi against Coke as his double cleared the bases to give the Red Sox a 5-4 win.
