Thursday, June 1, 1967: Cleveland 6, Tigers 4

Detroit, MI- The Cleveland Indians only got offense in one inning, but that was enough to beat the Tigers, 6-4 at Tiger Stadium.

The Tribe scored all their runs and accumulated all their hits in the fifth inning. They were held hitless and scoreless in the other eight frames.

But it was enough to overtake the Tigers (22-20), who finished a 6-8 home stand.

Tigers starter Denny McLain (3-5) was cruising along through the first four innings, but the fifth inning proved to be his undoing.

The Indians sent 11 men to the plate, and shortstop Ray Oyler's second error of the game didn't help. The Indians hit four doubles in the inning.

The Tigers got three runs in the sixth inning and one in the seventh, but Cleveland relievers Steve Bailey and Orlando Pena set the final six Tigers down in order.

Lefty John O'Donoghue got the win for Cleveland.

Dick McAuliffe hit his eighth home run for the Tigers, tying Willie Horton for the team lead.
