The Brewers broke loose for a total of five runs in the seventh and eighth innings to defeat the Tigers, 7-3. Bob Hansen singled and drove in two runs for the Brewers in the first, but the Tigers picked up a matching pair in the second and went ahead when Jim Northrup singled, advanced on a passed ball and scored on a double by Aurelio Rodriguez in the seventh. In the Brewers' half, Robin Yount was safe on an error, stole second and scored the tying run with two out on a single by Dave May. George Scott followed with a triple to put the Brewers ahead.
