Gene Tenace drove in four runs with two homers in support of Vida Blue, who pitched the Athletics to a 7-2 victory over the Tigers. Tenace's first homer accounted for three of the A's five runs off Jim Perry in the first inning. After Tenace added a solo swat in the third, the Tigers scored their pair on a single by Frank Howard and homer by Dick Sharon in the fifth. The A's came back in the home half with their last run on a round-tripper by Sal Bando.
