Making his first plate appearance at Yankee Stadium this year, Reggie Jackson lashed a two-run homer in the first inning and Oscar Gamble followed with a circuit clout to trigger the Yankees to a 6-2 triumph over the Tigers. Despite a wind-chill factor of 19 degrees, Rudy May went the route to record his third victory of the season and his 11th straight dating back to the 1980 season.
