July 4, 1968 at Tiger Stadium
Tigers 13, Angels 10 (52-27)
The Tigers held on to win a wild one as they finished up a four game sweep over the Angels for their fourth straight win. Jim Northrup and Norm Cash both hit a pair of homeruns and Northrup had a team high five RBIs. Bill Freehan and Willie Horton both also went yard in the win.
Pitching was not the name of the game in this one. Dennis Ribant picked up the win and he improved to 2-1 but he was more in the right place at the right time because he pitched just 2/3 of an inning. John Hiller pitched a perfect ninth inning and he picked up his second save of the season.
