Unbeaten rookie Pat Underwood got credit for his fifth straight victory as the Tigers pounded out an 8-3 decision over the Twins. The Tigers scored four times in the fourth inning on triples by Lance Parrish and Alan Trammell, a double by Ron LeFlore and single by Lynn Jones. Errors by John Castino and Roy Smalley helped the Tigers to two more runs in the sixth.
