Babbitt Throws 4-Hitter En Route to 6-1 Tigers Win
John Babbitt never let Boston get something going. The Montreal right-hander commanded his slider in pitching the Tigers to a 6-1 win. The Tigers now have a record of 69-41.

Babbitt, who has sometimes raised the ire of coaches and teammates with his famously lackadaisical work ethic, turned in a spirited effort. The hurler struck out 3 in 9 innings and gave up 1 run.

Babbitt, who is tied for 9th in the IA with a 3.28 ERA, moves to 16-13 on the year with 43 strikeouts.

In postgame remarks, Babbitt said: "To all who've been doubting my effort -- I hope they saw this game."
