Staked to a four-run lead in the first inning, Les Cain pitched the Tigers to a 7-1 victory over the Angels. Mickey Stanley led off with a single and Ike Brown, who made one of his infrequent starts at second base, followed with a homer. Al Kaline was retired, but Bill Freehan doubled and scored on a single by Jim Northrup. A two-out single by Elliott Maddox counted Northrup with the fourth run. [The Sporting News]
