Carew pursues crown as Twins meet Tigers
Rod Carew, co leader in the American League batting race at .320, leads the Minnesota Twins into a three game set with the Detroit Tigers at Metropolitan Stadium. He backs a 11 game hitting streak as Minnesota, hampered by injuries, leans on youth with Bert Blyleven matching up against Fryman or Timmerman. The club also signed four Minnesota prospects from a recent tryout camp.
