Tigers 11, Twins 2  (66-55)

Steve Carlton was pummelled by the Tiger hitters as the Twins four game winning streak came to an end.  He fell to 6-12 and he gave up nine runs (six earned) on eleven hits and a walk with two strikeouts in three innings.  Six of the nine runs came in the first inning as the Tigers built up an insurmountable lead in the first frame.

The Twins scored both of their runs on solo homers.  Randy Bush went yard in the third inning while Roy Smalley belted a solo shot in the seventh.
