Gates Brown homered for the Tigers in the fourth inning and that was all Joe Coleman needed to beat the Red Sox, 1-0, for his 17th victory. Coleman held the Red Sox hitless until Cecil Cooper, rookie from Pawtucket (Eastern), singled as a pinch-hitter in the eighth inning. Carl Yastrzemski and Reggie Smith added singles in the ninth.
