He is now slated to return to the Red Sox lineup Tuesday against Baltimore.
It was Justin Verlander vs.
Red Sox: Chris Sale goes Monday in the series finale. After a 36-minute rain delay, that is.
"He threw me a curveball and I was able to get a barrel on it", said Mahtook, who was playing his first home game for the Tigers after being acquired in the offseason.
Not with 20 percent of the Boston Red Sox's Opening Day roster, including the Nos.
Nick Castellanos knew what was up.
PHOENIX - Paul Goldschmidt doubled in two during a five-run fifth inning and the Arizona Diamondbacks rallied from three down to beat the Cleveland Indians 7-3 on Friday night. So long as Sale continues to do what he's doing, the new ace of the Boston staff will fit in just fine.
Zimmermann (1-0) labored early but allowed only one run and four hits. He retired just seven batters before being relieved by Anibal Sanchez.
The Tigers meant to bring proud papa Kyle Ryan back from the paternity list for Saturday's game, but his Friday night flight back from Florida was canceled for lack of flight attendants, and they couldn't find another direct flight until Monday, forcing him to improvise. If that was happening while Sale wasn't pitching well, fans would be lining Yawkey Way with torches and pitchforks. Verlander bagged a win in his first outing, recording 6.1 innings, six hits and two earned. They got one baserunner in the third on a Dustin Pedroia single and one in the fourth on another double from Moreland, but both ended up being stranded.

WFG Advisors LP acquired a new position in shares of Host Hotels and Resorts during the fourth quarter valued at about $205,000. APG Asset Management N.V. boosted its position in shares of Host Hotels and Resorts by 712.6% in the third quarter.
"We've just got to find someone that can pitch the seventh and eighth inning", Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said. They got into it a little bit, but the incident served as a turning point for Verlander.
Left-hander Kyle Ryan was activated from the paternity list before the game and made it through a scoreless eighth inning for the Tigers. It didn't work out that way on Monday, though.
Then, the bottom of the eighth happened. Things started off just fine, too.
The teams finish the four-game series today. He gets a ball off Brock (Holt's) glove, from Romine once again, for the double.
"I was able to use (Anibal) Sanchez, but he couldn't have gone far, because he threw 68 pitches a few days ago". Instead, the eighth continued with Sale being taken out for Heath Hembree, who had the pleasure of facing Miguel Cabrera.
The Red Sox couldn't pull off another comeback in the ninth.
Meanwhile, Detroit is 5-0 in their last five games versus a left-handed starter, and 7-3 in Verlander's last 10 starts. Tomlin struck out the next two batters, but Goldschmidt lined a double into left-center field to give the Diamondbacks a 4-3 lead over the defending AL champions. Obviously, the offense was to blame for this one.
Among those affected by one aspect of the flu or another: Mookie Betts (he played in his second game on Sunday), Mitch Moreland, Hanley Ramirez, Robbie Ross Jr., and Joe Kelly.
