Jim Colborn, making his first appearance in a Kansas City uniform, pitched six innings and Larry Gura finished as the Royals shut out the Tigers, 5-0. Al Cowens and Darrell Porter hit homers in the Royals' attack, Porter's poke coming with a man on base. John Mayberry batted in the two other runs with an infield out and single.
