Tigers Get Close Win Over Royals, 6-5
The Detroit 1984 Tigers had to overcome a fine effort from Kansas City 1977 pitcher Andy Hassler to win, 6-5, at Tiger Stadium. Hassler went 6 innings and allowed 1 run. Detroit 1984 reliever Willie Hernandez got the win, raising his record to 3-1. Marty Pattin was tagged with the loss. The triumph puts Detroit 1984 at 29-26 for the season.

The decisive blow was delivered by Rusty Kuntz in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a solo home run off 34-year old right-handed pitcher Marty Pattin to win the game for Detroit 1984. The home crowd went nuts.

"It's a thrill to get that kind of win," Kuntz said.
