The Blue Jays, who have been hovering around the .500 mark recently, squared their record at 10-10 by coming from behind a couple of times in this game and managed to win it with a home run in the ninth inning by Walter Fitzmorris off Steve Kingsale.

The game was scoreless until the top of the sixth inning when Detroit's Joe Loewer, Jim Delgado, and Eddie Fieber all singled to load the bases. Loewer scored on a ground out to make it 1-0 Detroit.

Detroit made it 3-0 with two more runs in the seventh inning. Detroit loaded the bases again on a single by Matt Whitney and a walk to Al Miller. Right hander Tony Adams replaced Toronto starter Clay Patterson (6IP+ two batters 4H 3R/3ER 2BB/0SO).

Adams got the first batter he faced, Chuck Strohmeyer on a pop up to second baseman Marion Hilton. Joe Loewer doubled in two runs to make it 3-0.

Catcher Don Bollweg got Toronto started on the comeback trail with a lead off single in the seventh inning. Bollweg with great speed stole second base. Charlie Mason doubled in the run.
