Two unearned runs in the 11th inning, resulting from a wild throw by reliever Tom Murphy, enabled the Tigers to defeat the Red Sox, 4-2. With one away, John Wockenfuss singled. When Jerry Manuel bunted and Murphy threw the ball away, both runners were safe. Following a passed ball, Murphy walked Ron LeFlore intentionally to load the bases and the Tigers' two runs then ensued on an infield out by Tom Veryzer and single by Dan Meyer.
