The Tigers rallied for four runs in the seventh inning on a walk and five singles to defeat the Brewers, 5-4. The Brewers also had a four-run inning, scoring in the fifth with the aid of a triple by George Scott and doubles by Robin Yount and Hank Aaron to take a 4-1 lead.

Ben Oglivie walked to open the Tigers' rally with one out in the seventh and Tom Veryzer singled. After Billy Baldwin was retired for the second out, consecutive singles by Gary Sutherland, Dan Meyer, Willie Horton and Bill Freehan produced the Tigers' four runs. [The Sporting News]
