Northrup had a big evening at the plate. He smashed a two-run homer in the 2nd inning, launched a three-run homer in the 3rd inning, blasted a two-run home run in the 4th inning and doubled in the 6th inning. Detroit banged out 16 hits on the night. The victory was credited to McLain(12-11) who went the distance, allowing 1 run. The losing pitcher was Wally Bunker(5-18). He was knocked around, surrendering 6 runs in 2 innings. 'I was really seeing the ball tonight,' Northrup said 'I wish it was always this easy.'
