Pounding four Chicago pitchers for 14 hits, the Tigers thumped the White Sox, 10-2. The Tigers got three runs in the first inning on a two-run single by Steve Kemp and an RBI single by Tim Corcoran, and picked up three more tallies in the second on a sacrifice fly by Rusty Staub and RBI singles by Jason Thompson and Kemp. Lou Whitaker hit a three-run inside-the-park round-tripper in the third frame and Staub hit a solo clout in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
