After being held hitless through the first six innings by Dave Roberts, the Tigers rallied for two runs in the eighth and two more in the ninth to defeat the Mariners, 4-2. Detroit tied the game in the eighth on a walk to John Wockenfuss and successive two-out singles by Kirk Gibson, Tom Brookens and pinch-hitter Stan Papi. With two outs in the ninth, Al Cowens singled off reliever Byron McLaughlin and then Richie Hebner, pinch-hitting for Wockenfuss, homered to right field. [The Sporting News]
