Al Kaline singled in the fourth inning for the 2,998th hit of his major league career, but the Tigers collected a total of only five safeties off Jim Slaton and lost to the Brewers, 6-2. Kaline drove in one run with a sacrifice fly. The Brewers had homers by Bob Coluccio and Sixto Lezcano before breaking a 2-2 tie in the seventh when Gorman Thomas singled, Charlie Moore walked and Pedro Garcia sent them home with a double.
