Sparked by Bill Freehan, who hit a homer, the Tigers scored four runs in the third inning and defeated the Twins, 5-3. The Twins counted twice off Joe Coleman in the second before Aurelio Rodriguez homered in the Tigers' half. Al Kaline walked in the third and Freehan followed with his round-tripper. The deciding pair followed on two walks, a sacrifice, infield out by Ed Brinkman and single by Jerry Moses. The Twins scored their final run in the fifth when Steve Braun doubled and Tony Oliva singled.
