Quiet night for Jacoby

Jacoby was very quiet in the series opener against the Detroit Tigers. Heres a quick summary of his at bats:

1st inning- Flew out to Edgar Renteria (shortstop)
3rd inning- Grounded out to first baseman Miguel Cabrera.
4th inning- Struck out looking.
7th inning- Struck out looking.
9th inning- Granderson made a diving catch which robbed Jacoby from what had the possibility of maybe being an inside the park homer with Jacoby's speed.

On the other hand, other Sox players had great nights. For example, in the 2nd inning Mike Lowell hit his 1st homerun of the season and got his first 2 RBIs of the season (Manny had a double prior to Mikey's at bat). Mikey's homer put the Sox on top 2-0.

In the 4th inning, Mike Lowell hit a double, Youk then hit a homerun putting the Sox on
top 4-0.

In the 7th inning, Dustin Pedroia got his 14th double of the season. David Ortiz then got a base hit which scored Dustin; which gave Ortiz RBI #25 of the year.

In the 9th inning, David Ortiz got his 6th homerun of the season giving the Sox a 6-3 lead.

Dice K had 8 walks, gave up 2 hits and 1 run. Even after giving up so many walks, he still managed to get the win. Papelbon got the save.

Sox won it 6-3.
