A two-run homer by Al Kaline in the ninth inning and throwing error by Tim Blackwell on which two more runs scored enabled the Tigers to defeat the Red Sox, 7-5. The Red Sox took a 5-3 lead with a four-run outburst in the seventh, three runs coming on a homer by Cecil Cooper. Kaline's clout tied the score in the ninth. Jim Northrup followed with a double and Ben Oglivie walked. Northrup advanced to third after Aurelio Rodriguez flied out. Blackwell, rookie catcher for the Red Sox, tried to pick Northrup off third, but his throw sailed into left field and both Northrup and Oglivie scored on the error.
