A batting outburst by George Scott, who rapped two doubles and three singles in five trips, led the Brewers to a 6-5 victory over the Tigers. Doubles by Bill Sharp and Scott and a single by Darrell Porter produced two runs in the fourth inning. Scott singled for another RBI in the fifth when the Brewers added three runs.

Their deciding marker followed in the sixth on a pass to Mike Hegan, infield out by Don Money and double by Charlie Moore. Ben Oglivie and Dan Meyer hit homers for the Tigers, Meyer's blow coming with a man on base. [The Sporting News]
