April 14, 1968 at Tiger Stadium
Tigers 5, White Sox 4 (3-1)
The Tigers won their third straight in a ten inning contest in which Bill Freehan provided the heroics. His RBI single in the bottom of the tenth inning won it for the Tigers and it capped off a great individual game for the catcher. He finished three for five with two RBIs and a run. Don Wert doubled, drove in two and scored.
Mickey Lolich was roughed up for four runs on nine hits in just five innings. Fred Lasher threw a shutout tenth inning and he improved to 1-0 on the season.
