After six straight defeats, Dean Chance gained his first victory in a Detroit uniform when the Tigers nipped the Senators, 1-0. Doubles by Dalton Jones and Ed Brinkman produced a run off Jerry Janeski in the fifth inning. Chance was lifted after walking three batters in the eighth and Fred Scherman saved the game.
