Tigers 4, Twins 3 (23-12)
The Tigers came back from an early 3-0 deficit in this one to walk away with their third straight win. Willie Horton hit a solo shot, his tenth homer of the season, in the ninth inning to send the game into extra frames and then Al Kaline scored on an error (the second of the inning) in the top of the tenth to win it. Kaline finished with two runs despite not getting a hit and no Tiger had more then one hit.
Denny McLain improved to 6-1 despite a three run second inning. He gave up just the three runs on seven hits with seven strikeouts in the ten inning complete game.
