Boston (Thu., July 31, 1975) - The Tigers racked up 12 hits but failed to score, and Roger Moret pitched 8.1 innings of shutout ball as the Boston Red Sox won Game 2 of a twi-night doubleheader, 4-0, to complete a sweep of the twinbill.
Boston won Game 1, 5-4, despite blowing a 4-0 lead.
In the nightcap, the Tigers (43-62) constantly had runners on base, but couldn't plate any against lefty Moret. They left 12 runners on base, including the bases loaded twice.
Dwight Evans hit a two-run homer for Boston in Game 2.
In the first game, the Red Sox stormed to a 4-0 lead off Tigers starter Ray Bare by the third inning, but the Tigers erased that lead with three in the fourth and one in the fifth off Bill Lee.
The Red Sox scored the eventual game-winning run in the sixth on a force out by Denny Doyle, which scored Rico Petrocelli.
Bare (3-4) took the loss in the first game, and Dave Lemanczyk (0-2) was roughed up in Game 2 in a spot start.
The Major Said: "I can't remember the last time I've seen a team get 12 hits and not score. But that's kind of how our season has gone this year."
