Tigers' Tyler Holton: Records save Saturday
Tyler Holton worked around a walk to pitch a scoreless ninth inning and earn the save in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Red Sox.Holton followed starter Tarik Skubal, who dazzled across eight innings. The Detroit reliever kept things up and earned his sixth save of the season. Presumptive top closer Jason Foley was likely available, as he last pitched on Wednesday, but the Detroit Tigers turned to Holton to face the top of Boston's lineup. That meant matchups with left-handed batters Jarren Duran and Rafael Devers, so perhaps that favored the southpaw Holton.
