Raising his record to 3-1, 20-year-old rookie Dan Petry scattered seven hits as the Tigers notched a 5-2 decision over the Brewers. The Tigers scored four runs in the third inning. Alan Trammell singled with one out, stole second and tallied on a single by Ron LeFlore. LeFlore then stole second and, after Lou Whitaker walked, Jason Thompson cracked a three-run homer. Tom Brookens connected for a solo homer in the seventh. [The Sporting News]
