Cleveland 8, Detroit 7
Down five, Cleveland loaded the bases for Lou Boudreau, who had just 40 career homers coming into the game. His 41st marked his first ever grand slam. The next batter, Joe Gordon, then hit it out of the park to tie the game. In the ninth, pinch hitter Hal Peck doubled and then scored when Thurman Tucker singled in the next at bat. Newly acquired Russ Christopher pitched 1-2-3 ninth to seal the comeback victory for the visitors.

Detroit 8, Cleveland 2
Art Houtteman outdueled Bob Feller, who started out strong with no hits allowed until the fourth, and was bolstered by an efficient offensive output from Detroit. Feller was allowed to try and save his game in the seventh, but a two-out error allowed Neil Berry to come to bat with the bases loaded. His triple put the lead out of reach even after a Ken Keltner homer in the ninth.
