The Tigers ran their winning streak to six games with a 3-1 triumph over the Yankees on Chet Lemon's tape-measure two-run homer in the third inning and the six-hit pitching of Jack Morris. Lemon's clout off veteran lefthander Tommy John, now 0-3, went into the rarely-reached portion of the upper deck in left field. [The Sporting News]
