WEB GEMS- Bot 8th: Dave Concepcion robbed Pete Rose of a base hit.
At Fulton County, the Detroit fans witnessed a great pitcher's duel. Dick
Lange(1-3) finally bested his Detroit opposite, Andy Messersmith(4-3), by the
score of 2 to 0.
Minnesota took the lead for keeps in the top of the 2nd inning plating one
baserunner. That scoring would be all that was needed. Both teams totaled 7
hits on the night.
Lange got relief help from Elias Sosa who gained credit for his 3rd save.
Messersmith was the losing pitcher. He surrendered 2 runs and 7 hits in 9
innings.
