An inside-the-park homer by Roberto Pena with the bases loaded in the first inning helped the Brewers beat the Tigers, 9-7, to snap a seven-game losing streak. Les Cain, who started for the Tigers, walked three batters to load the bases and gave up a run-scoring single by Ted Savage before the Pena hit to right-center field. Jim Northrup and Al Kaline collided going after the drive and the ball got past them as Pena circled the bases.
