Last night was the second of a three game series between two of baseball’s best, the Red Sox and the Tigers. This was slated as a pitcher’s duel between Jon Lester and league leader in wins, Max Scherzer. With that in mind, I wasn’t expecting much action to shoot, and that’s exactly how things went.
Instead, this game’s pictures were more about emotion and reaction than plays on the field, which there was quite a bit of.
Perhaps this is a preview for things to come in the playoffs.
