Vern Ruhle shut out the Yankees, scoreless in their last 27 innings, on six hits, and Willie Horton whacked his 17th homer of the season as the Tigers tamed New York, 3-0. After Horton led off the second with his round-tripper, Bill Freehan walked, took third on Aurelio Rodriguez' single and scored as the Yankees turned over a double play. New York reliever Ron Guidry forced home the final Tiger run with a bases-loaded walk in the ninth. [The Sporting News] |
