The second game of the evening pitted the Tigers against the Senators. Detroit started off strong, attacking Washington starter, Dick Bosman mercilessly. The first five batters each got a hit, with only one out being recorded when Norm Cash tried to stretch his double into a triple. The 6th batter of the inning, Al Kaline, flied out for the second out, but Jim Northrup scored from 3rd on the play. The next batter, Dick McAuliffe cracked a double, scoring another run. Bosman finally got out of the first when the 8th batter of the inning, Bill Freehan, hit a ground ball to him. Bosman managed to hold the Tigers there until the top of the 3rd when they struck again in the form of a sacrifice fly by Dick McAuliffe. The Senators didn't get on the board until the bottom of the 4th when Frank Howard hit a round tripper to leftfield. The game would end with the score where it was. Detroit starter Mickey Lolich pitched a complete game and only allowed two hits, both to Frank Howard.
