Detroit 2 Boston 1
Detroit has begun to play much better baseball and have won three straight to improve their record 19-26 and are now eight games back of the leaders
22 year old lefthander Craig Tabler went 8 innings allowed 6 hits and 1 run walked 1 struck out 4 in a start that was planned to be his last before he was to be sent down to get some added experience. The outing may very well have kept him in the majors if he can continue to pitch consistently now.
Boston scored its' only run off Tabler in the 3rd inning. Eddie Cross tripled with no outs. Two outs later Cross was still at third base when Dutch Felix hit a Baltimore chop that Tabler juggled and threw late to first for a RBI infield single.
The Tigers rallied to tie the game in the 4th inning. Left fielder Larry Foster singled, stole second base, narrowly getting in safely with a good slide to avoid the tag from second baseman Bo Liniak after catcher Doug Robinson made a splendid throw to the corner of the bag.
Dick Monahan's double tied the game 1-1.
Detroit took a 2-1 lead in the 5th inning scoring without benefit of a hit in the inning. Cross whose bat helped put Boston in front earlier made a critical error in center field when he dropped Mike Simpson's fly ball.
Tony Cooke's ground ball to second moved the runner to third and a sacrifice fly by Don Baker brought in the run.
