Jim Hughes pitched a seven-hitter as the Twins edged the Tigers, 3-1, for the losers' 13th consecutive setback, tying a club record set by the 1920 Tigers and tied in 1953. The Twins scored in the first on singles by Dan Ford, Tony Oliva and Eric Soderholm and made it 2-0 in the second on Lyman Bostock's RBI single. Ford had four hits and drove in the Twins' final run in the ninth. The Tigers avoided a shutout in the seventh on singles by Tom Veryzer, Ron LeFlore and Gary Sutherland.
