The Indians and Tigers battled to a 0-0 tie before a league rule stopped the game just minutes before the lights flickered on for Game Two.

On August 11, 1942, a rare twilight-night doubleheader in Cleveland took an ironic turn in 1942. The Indians hosted the Detroit Tigers for only their second-ever twilight-night doubleheader. The two teams were locked in a 0-0 tie in the 14th when the game was called due to darkness under a league rule forbade finishing a game under lights if it began in daylight (as noted in the box score). Just minutes later, those very lights came on for Game Two, where the Tigers edged the Indians 3-2.
