The New York Yankees beat the Detroit Tigers by a score of 6-1. New York right fielder Kevin Meinecke deserved the lion's share of the credit. Meinecke was 4-4 with a home run and 3 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Yankees. New York now has a record of 70-53 with the win.

New York took a 6-1 lead on Meinecke's 4th home run of the season. The grand slam home run, which he hit off Danny Goldman in the top of the sixth, propelled New York to the win.

Meinecke told a New York Daily reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.
