Tigers starter Drew Smyly turned in a quality start on Friday against the Red Sox, scattering two runs -- one earned -- on five hits and one walk while striking out four in six innings of a 6-2 victory.

Smyly improved to 3-4 on the year. Over his last two starts covering 10 innings, Smyly has allowed four earned runs. He owns a 3.81 ERA and a 1.34 WHIP over 54 1/3 innings. He will look to keep things rolling Wednesday against the White Sox in Chicago.
