Yankees 5, Tigers 4  (91-55)

The Yankees came up with four big runs in the eighth inning to overcome what was then a two run deficit to beat the Tigers to kick off a road trip.  Paul Blair capped off the inning with a two run shot while Lou Piniella doubled twice, drove in two runs and scored.

Don Gullett went the distance and he improved to 12-4 on the season.  He gave up four runs (three earned) on eight hits and one walk with five strikeouts.
