The Rangers had to travel 14 innings to do it, but they defeated the Tigers, 4-3, for their 58th victory of the season, one more than their total for the entire 1973 campaign. Al Kaline accounted for the Tigers' first run with a homer in the first inning for the 1,560th RBI of his career, moving him ahead of Tris Speaker into 15th place on the major leagues' all-time list.
