Javier Báez stole the headlines. He deserved them, too, after blasting the Detroit Tigers to a 3-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox on Monday at Comerica Park. The new shortstop crushed a two-run home run in the eighth inning. The developing pitcher deserves just as much credit. “He had the command on his fastball,” Báez said.
