August 3, 1984 Royals 9, Tigers 6 (72-35)

Milt Wilcox was cruising along until the Royals hit him hard in the fourth. By the end of the inning, Wilcox would be sitting, and Aurilio Lopez would be in the game. Lopez threw another six innings of relief, but it still wasn’t enough.

Lou Whitaker went four for five, and Alan Trammell and Tom Brookens hit homeruns.
