By TIM MORIARTY UPI Sports Writer Hank Aguirre and Harmon Killebrew have absolutely nothing in common when it comes to playing baseball. Aguirre, who topped all major league pitchers with a 2.21 earned-run average last season, admits he's a lousy hitter. Killebrew never has tried his hand at pitching but he led the American league with 48 homers in 1962.

The Tigers, meanwhile, bunched three of their four hits with a walk and a passed ball for their two runs in the bottom of the first. Killebrew blasted a Barry Latman fast ball 400 feet into the teeth of a stiff wind with one aboard in the eighth in ning to provide the Twins with their margin of victory.

Veteran pitcher Stuart Young twirled a one-hitler for Medford and along with Dick Deffley and Gary Miller provided the brunt of the nine-hit batting power.
