Completing the three-game series sweep, the Yankees downed the Tigers, 7-2, as rookie first baseman Steve Balboni tripled in his first major league at-bat and drew a bases-loaded walk in a five-run seventh inning to receive credit for the tie-breaking RBI. With the score 2-2 in the seventh, Lou Piniella drew a one-out walk and moved to third on a double by Graig Nettles.
