A homer by Rusty Staub with two men on base in the 10th inning capped a four-run uprising that gave the Tigers an 8-4 triumph over the White Sox. Milt May singled to open the 10th and after Phil Mankowski struck out, Lerrin LaGrow replaced Pablo Torrealba on the mound for the Chisox and gave up a single to Mark Wagner, sending May to third. Ron LeFlore forced Wagner as May scored the tie-breaking run. After Lou Whitaker singled, Rich Hinton replaced LaGrow and was greeted by Staub's blast.
