Tigers Win at Oakland, 4-3
The Detroit Tigers scored a 4-3 win versus the Oakland Athletics at Oakland Coliseum. Detroit pitcher Tim Belcher nabbed top player honors in the tight contest. The Athletics fall to 10-21 and continue their lethargic start to the 1997 season.

With two out in the top of the third, Tino Martinez had a game-changing hit. The Tigers first baseman slammed a 3-run home run off Todd Stottlemyre, making the score 3-0, Detroit.

"I like the grit of this ballclub," Martinez said.
