Despite tornado warnings, Justin Verlander took a shutout into the eighth inning as the Detroit Tigers beat the Boston Red Sox 3-0 to get a split of the day-night doubleheader.
Verlander (5-3) allowed four hits and walked two in 7 2-3 innings, throwing a career-high 132 pitches. The pitch count matched the highest by a Tigers pitcher since Felipe Lira threw 135 on Aug. 11, 1996.
Josh Beckett (4-2) took his first loss since April 5—his first start of the season. Beckett gave up two runs on five hits and a season-high five walks in six innings.
