Twins 7 (29-28), Tigers 0 (32-24)
Just one game after giving up 15 runs, the Twins pitching staff got it done and shut out the Tigers. Jim Kaat threw the gem. He gave up only five hits without a walk with six strikeouts.
Harmon Killebrew hit his sixteenth homerun of the season. He drove in two runs as did Rod Carew. Cesar Tovar continued to hit well and he had two hits and two runs.
Earl Wilson dropped to 8-6 and he was gone before the season inning ended. Bill Freehan and Norm Cash each had two hits.
