. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Alan Trammell collected five hits, including two doubles, to pace the Tigers to an 8-2 pounding of the Blue Jays. The Tigers took a 1-0 lead in the third on a single by Trammell, a stolen base and RBI single by John Wockenfuss.

Detroit made it 3-0 in the fifth on an RBI double by Tom Brookens and run-scoring single by Al Cowens. A two-bagger by Lou Whitaker and single by Trammell drove in a pair of tallies in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
