Detroit left-hander Frank Viola was sensational in shutting out the Washington Senators, 3-0. Bob James converted his 26th save in 27 tries. The 4th-place Tigers have won 4 straight.

The Senators had been locked in a 0-0 tie with the Tigers going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the former first overall pick Lenny Dykstra came to the plate. Dykstra hit a solo home run on a 1-2 fastball from Washington hurler Jose DeLeon. It was Dykstra's 3rd home run of the year.

Dykstra called the win "a collective effort."
