Tigers Down Brewers, 2-1
The Detroit Tigers got a magnificent performance from pitcher Antonio Alfonseca, who muffled the Milwaukee offense en route to a tight 2-1 Tigers win at County Stadium. Detroit reliever Zózimo Czolgosz picked up the win to move to 1-7. Larry Carter suffered the loss. Detroit now has a record of 86-70 with the win.

Detroit used a clutch hit from Kent Brown to get the win. The left fielder drilled a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Tigers ahead, 2-1. It was his only hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

During his postgame press conference, Tigers manager Bob Pollak told reporters that he expected a tight game from the get-go. "This had the potential to go down to the wire, and it certainly didn't disappoint," he said, later quipping, "it might've been a little less nerve-racking if I had been watching the game from my couch!"
