WEB GEMS- Top 4th: Bill Freehan blocked the plate, saving a run!
Dick McAuliffe knocked 3 homeruns and had 7 RBI at Tiger Stadium where the
Detroit Tigers beat the Minnesota Twins by the score of 12 to 9.
McAuliffe had a great day at the plate. He had the crowd cheering his every
move. He lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' in the 1st inning, launched a
three-run homer in the 3rd inning and clubbed a three-run home run in the 5th
inning. Due to a poorly pitched ballgame, scoring in 6 different innings was
still not enough for Minnesota to come away with the victory.
The win was credited to Pat Dobson(3-4) who went 2/3 of an inning allowing no
runs. Dave Boswell(11-8) suffered the loss. He couldn't find the strike zone
and allowed 6 walks in 2 and 2/3 innings.
'I felt great out there today,' McAuliffe said, 'Maybe I should make a regular
habit of getting to bed on time!'
