In an uncharacteristic display of post-game bravado, Morris likened the complete game effort to "throwing some batting practice".

With the win, the Tigers were able to hold ground against the A.L. East division leading Toronto Blue Jays, who [url=http://www.sportingnews.com/baseball/1986/scores/boxscore.php?id=488][u:856a7835e7]beat up the Chicago White Sox 8-3[/u:856a7835e7][/url] thanks to a 17 hit attack.
