A grand-slam homer by Rick Reichardt climaxed a six-run explosion in the second inning and carried the Senators to a 6-4 victory over the Tigers. Singles by Ed Stroud and Paul Casanova, together with a sacrifice fly by Tim Cullen, started the Nats' scoring. Ed Brinkman and Wayne Comer singled for another run before Frank Howard walked to load the bases for Reichardt. Joe Coleman, who was the beneficiary of the blow, beat the Tigers for the seventh straight time without a loss. Two of the Tigers' runs came on homers by Bill Freehan and Jim Northrup.
