Milt Wilcox allowed only one
hit — a one-out single by Jerry
Martin past fallen shortstop
Alan Trammell with one out in
the second inning — Tuesday
night in pitching Detroit to an
8-0 victory over Kansas City on
his 32nd birthday.
Wilcox, 1-1, making his
second start and first since April
12, struck out nine and walked
five. He retired 12 straight bat
ters at one point from the third
through the seventh innings.
Martin’s grounder was hit to
the left of second base as Tram
mell fell down trying to field it.
The ball was several feet beyond
him and it was questionable
whether he could have come up
with it.
“Trammell told me he
couldn’t have gotten the ball
even if he hadn’t slipped,” De
troit Manager Sparky Anderson
said.
Rookie Glenn Wilson trig
gered a six-run second inning
with a two-run double to pace
the Tigers to their fourth
straight triumph.
In other AL games, Boston
toppled Baltimore, 8-3, Cleve
land downed Texas, 9-4, New
York throttled Chicago, 11-2,
Seattle beat California, 6-4, and
Oakland edged Minnesota, 4-3,
in 16 innings. Toronto at Mil
waukee was postponed because
of cold weather.
At Boston, Glenn Hoffman
hit his second homer in three
days, a two-run shot in the
fourth inning that capped a
three-run rally and enabled the
Red Sox to hand Baltimore its
seventh straight loss.
