Otto Velez and Buck Martinez each belted three-run homers in the first inning to spur the Blue Jays to a 6-4 triumph over the Tigers, Toronto's first victory since May 30. Velez connected for the circuit following singles by Lloyd Moseby and Barry Bonnell, and Martinez' clout was preceded by singles by Al Woods and Damaso Garcia. Juan Berenguer, acquired by the Jays on waivers from Kansas City the previous day, was the winning pitcher.
