With Late Score, Yankees Beat Tigers
The New York Yankees faced a tough opponent in Detroit pitcher Cesar Mejia, but did just enough to pull out the victory at Yankee Stadium 1976 by a final score of 6-5. Mejia went 5.2 innings and allowed 3 runs. Brian Lawrence picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-0. Paul Anderson was tagged with the loss. John Braase closed out the game, earning his 17th save.

Sean Casey was 1-2 with a double and a walk, while adding 2 RBI for New York. The 26-year old first baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the eighth. With one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Melido Perez. It was his 62nd RBI of the season.

Casey told the New York Bulletin: "Sometimes the big stage is not big enough for me."

New York improves to 61-32 with the win. They lead their division by 2 games.
