Dave May led off the 10th inning with his second homer of the game to give the Brewers a 6-5 victory over the Tigers. May's first homer accounted for one of three runs in the fifth when the Brewers took a 4-3 lead. Gates Brown homered to tie the score in the Tigers' half.

The Brewers went ahead again with a run in the ninth on a triple by Darrell Porter and sacrifice fly by Pedro Garcia, but the Tigers forced the game into overtime with a single by Duke Sims, an error on a bunt by Mickey Stanley and single by Bill Freehan that scored pinch-runner Tony Taylor.
