| October 10, 1971 The Detroit Tigers defeated the San Francisco Giants in a wild affair at rain soaked Tiger Stadium, winning game 1 of the World Series 11-8. Willie McCovey hit 2 home runs, the 2nd a 3-run shot in the 7th (I got 'bit' by robbing home run rule) giving the Giants what looked like an insurmountable 8-2 lead. But the Tigers came roaring back, getting 2 runs in the 7th and 7 runs in the 8th. In that 8th inning the Tigers got 5 runs with 2 outs. First, Mickey Stanley hit a 2-run blast then Bill Freehan cleared the bases with a 3-run double. Bill Denehy got the win for Detroit and Steve Hamilton took the loss for San Francisco. Game 2 tomorrow will see Juan Marichal (18-12) try to even things up vs. Joe Coleman (23-12) and the Tigers. |

WEB GEMS- Bot 8th: Tito Fuentes robbed Al Kaline of a base hit.
Gates Brown had 4 hits as the Detroit Tigers defeated the San Francisco Giants
11 to 8 at Tiger Stadium.
Detroit put a big number on the board in the 8th inning, which proved too much
for San Francisco to overcome when they blasted San Francisco for 7 runs on 7
hits. The big moment was provided by Mickey Stanley who brought a roar from
the partisan Tiger Stadium fans when he blasted a two-run home run (his 1st
of the season). Despite scoring in 5 separate innings, San Francisco could
not get the win.
Bill Denehy(1-0) got credit for the victory, pitching 1 inning and allowing no
runs. Tom Timmermann earned the save, his 1st. Steve Hamilton(0-1) ended up
with the loss in relief.
