September 12, 1967 at Tiger Stadium
Tigers 6 (82-64), Orioles 4
Al Kaline broke a 4-4 tie in the sixth inning with a big two run homer that pushed the Tigers back to within a win of a tie for first place. Kaline also doubled earlier in the game and Bill Freehan singled twice and drove in two runs.
Earl Wilson gave up three runs and he didn’t even make it through the second inning in a tough start. Fred Gladding gave up just one run in three innings of relief to pick up the win while Fred Lasher pitched two shutout innings to close out the game and he picked up save number eighth.
