A grounder by Champ Summers in the first inning scored Alan Trammell and decided a five-hit duel between Dan Schatzeder and Roger Erickson, giving the Tigers a 1-0 victory over the Twins. Ricky Peters led off with a single and took third on a single by Trammell.

Steve Kemp grounded to first baseman Ron Jackson and Peters was retired in a rundown between third and home, but Trammell advanced to third and Kemp to second on the play. Summers' grounder to shortstop Roy Smalley then plated the game's lone run. [The Sporting News]
