Dan Meyer gave rookie hurler Vern Ruhle a 2-0 lead with a first-inning home run and the Tigers never trailed as they ended the Twins' four-game winning streak, 6-2. Aurelio Rodriguez pounded a solo four-bagger off loser Bill Campbell in the second and drove in Detroit's final two runs with a double in the eighth. Gary Sutherland's RBI single accounted for the other Tiger run in the fifth. The Twins, who scored an unearned run in the second, got their only other marker on Tom Kelly's homer in the fourth.
