Allowing only one hit, Joe Coleman pitched the Tigers to a 4-2 victory over the Brewers, who were stopped on their five-game winning streak. In the first inning, after Robin Yount was hit by a pitch and Sixto Lezcano grounded into a forceout, George Scott came up and homered for the Brewers' only hit to account for their two runs.

The Tigers came back with a homer by Bill Freehan in the fourth. In the fifth, Ron LeFlore singled to drive in two runs after the Tigers had loaded the bases on a safe bunt by Leon Roberts and two walks. Then in the seventh, LeFlore walked, stole second and scored on a single by Gary Sutherland. [The Sporting News]
