Rick Bosetti batted in two runs with a homer in the fifth inning and added the deciding marker with a triple in the seventh as the Blue Jays ended a five-game losing streak with a 5-4 victory over the Tigers, who were stopped on their four-game winning string. John Mayberry drove in the Jays' initial run with a single in the first and scored another tally after drawing a walk in the fourth. Lou Whitaker accounted for two of the Tigers' tallies with a sacrifice fly and single.
