Boston — Ronny Rodriguez, Josh Harrison and Grayson Greiner. Those were your hitting stars Tuesday as the Tigers took the first of two games from the Red Sox, 7-4.

Rodriguez, getting the start at shortstop, doubled twice and hit a home run to left field that cleared the Green Monster and flew out of Fenway Park.

Harrison, who was mired in a 2-for-32 slump and was dropped out of the leadoff spot, had two hits, including a two-run double that broke a 3-3 tie in the top of the eighth.
