After Ron LeFlore drove in the tie-breaking run in the eighth inning, Aurelio Rodriguez smashed a three-run homer in the ninth to clinch the Tigers' 6-2 victory over the Red Sox. Pedro Garcia singled, stole second and crossed the plate on LeFlore's single. Rusty Staub and Alex Johnson both singled ahead of Rodriguez' homer.
