July 8, 1967 at Comiskey Park
White Sox 1 (47-31), Twins 0 (43-36)
Tommy John had his best start of the season to date with a three hit shutout over the streaking Twins. He gave up three walks and he struck out four and the win pushed his record to 8-5 on the season. A fantastic start by Jim Merritt was wasted as he took the loss for the Twins. He gave up a run on six hits and two walks with three strikeouts.
The only run of the game didn’t come until the ninth inning. Dick Kenworthy led off with a double and then Ken Berry was given a free pass. Ron Hansen moved them both over and then after Buddy Bradford was given a free pass to load the bases, Wayne Causey belted a sac. fly to center to win it.
