Pushing across two runs in the ninth inning, the Tigers edged the Orioles, 3-2. With one out in the ninth, Lance Parrish beat out an infield hit and Alan Trammell followed with a single. Pinch-hitter Lynn Jones then delivered the game-tying single and, one out later, Ron LeFlore stroked a single to send Trammell home with the decisive tally. Rookie Kirk Gibson drilled his first major league homer for the Tigers in the fourth.
