'Bad luck': Rangers knock around Boyd, Tigers

Detroit — The drought continues for Matt Boyd.

The Tigers starting pitcher is having some good starts but is having little to show for it at the end of his outings. It’s been more than a month since his last win and although he had another decent start, it wasn’t good enough for a win.

Boyd gave up two runs through the first four innings, but the 12 hits on Sunday night were tough to overcome — and the home runs he allowed in the fifth and sixth innings were his undoing, as the Texas Rangers took advantage of Boyd’s two mistakes in a 5-2 win over the Tigers on Sunday night at Comerica Park.
