A grand slam by Gorman Thomas highlighted the Brewers' seventh straight victory, a 12-5 rout of the Tigers. Thomas' blast came in the sixth inning and was immediately followed by a round-tripper by Ben Oglivie. The Brewers registered five runs in the fourth frame on an RBI single by Sixto Lezcano, two-run throwing error by Detroit pitcher Dan Petry, another error by Detroit shortstop Mark Wagner and RBI groundout by Charlie Moore.
