After the previous day's rain, a sparse crowd of 8,968 turned out for Milwaukee's postponed opener and saw the Brewers lose to the Tigers, 6-2. The first five Tigers scored to open the game. Dick McAuliffe led off with a double, Aurelio Rodriguez walked and Gates Brown singled for the first run. After Willie Horton was hit by a pitch, Norm Cash singled to drive in two tallies. Two more then scored on a fielder's choice and an error. Detroit Tigers 8, Milwaukee Brewers 2Game Played on Saturday, April 22, 1972 (Day game) at County StadiumTigers 5 2 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 8 13 1
