    David Ortiz's drive was plenty deep -- and more importantly, it was headed toward the right part of the ballpark.

    "I think I broke my own record for hitting hard balls right at people," Ortiz said. "After you put a good swing on the ball, the next hope is the ball travels where nobody's at."

    Ortiz hit a three-run homer in the ninth inning, and the Boston Red Sox rallied for a 5-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Sunday, snapping their five-game losing streak.
