A five-run rally in the ninth inning, capped with homers by Norm Cash and Mickey Stanley, carried the Tigers to a 6-5 victory over the Orioles. The Tigers, who went into the ninth on the short end of a 5-1 score, opened their outburst with a run on singles by Willie Horton, Jim Northrup and Bill Freehan. Another run counted on a sacrifice fly by Don Wert. Cash, batting for Ken Szotkiewicz, came through with a homer to tie the score and Stanley, with two out, delivered the game-winning blow.
