Mantle Slugs Tigers to 6-1 Win
The Detroit Tigers defeated the Kansas City Royals, 6-1. Center Fielder Mickey Mantle deserved a large share of the credit. Mantle hit 2 home runs. He scored 3 times and drove in 2 for the Tigers. Jesse Tannehill got credit for the win, improving to 12-1. He allowed 1 run on 6 hits in 7 innings. The winning streak has now reached 6 games for Detroit.

The game turned with no one out in the top of the fourth. That's when Mantle hit a solo home run off Stephen Strasburg. It propelled the Tigers into the lead, 2-1.

"We put our best foot forward tonight," said a smiling Mantle.
