The clutch relief pitching of John Hiller, who quelled the Orioles with the bases loaded and one out in the ninth inning, made it possible for the Tigers to gain a 3-2 victory. Paul Blair homered for the Orioles in the first, but Aurelio Rodriguez singled and Ed Brinkman homered to send the Tigers ahead in the third.
