Two homers by Alan Trammell and one each by Champ Summers and Al Cowens carried the Tigers to a 5-3 victory over the Blue Jays. Trammell connected for a two-run shot in the third inning and added a solo blast in the eighth. Summers cracked a 2-2 tie with a leadoff swat in the fourth and, with two outs in the same inning, Cowens hit for the circuit. [The Sporting News]
