Monte Pearson pitched a complete game, three Yankees hit home runs and it added up to a 7-1 rout of the Tigers at Briggs Stadium on Saturday. Red Rolfe, Joe Gordon and Lou Gehrig all went deep for the Bronx Bombers. The Tigers briefly tied the game, 1-1, when an error by left fielder George Selkirk led to a run, but other than that, it was all Yankees, who took the series, 2-1. Hank Greenberg remains at 53 home runs in his pursuit of Babe Ruth's single season record.
TIGERS: 75-64; Home: 35-34; Away: 40-30
