Documenting the Greatest Pennant Race of All Time

September 18, 1967 at Anaheim Stadium
Angels 3 (78-71), White Sox 2 (85-67)
Because the Tigers lost, the White Sox could have moved into sole possession of first place with a win against the Angels. Instead, they lost in ninth inning and found themselves back in fourth place, just a half game of a three way tie between the Tigers, Twins and Red Sox. The game winning hit was a walk off RBI single by Rick Reichardt.
Minnie Rojas improved to 11-9 with 1 1/3 innings of shutout relief. Bob Locker took the loss for the White Sox and he gave up that ninth inning run.
Reichardt was the only Angels hitter who finished with two hits. He went two for four with the game winning RBI and a run. For the White Sox, Rocky Colavito singled and he drove in one of their two runs.
