Reggie Jackson, who had been criticized by owner George Steinbrenner for his failure to hit in the clutch during the Yankee slump, smacked a grand-slam homer to lead the attack in a 10-2 victory over the Tigers. Jackson also drove in a run with a single in the second inning before connecting for his slam in the third after the Yankees loaded the bases on a walk to Graig Nettles, single by Chris Chambliss and error by Tigers' loser Steve Baker that permitted Lou Piniella to reach first.
