June 25, 1967 at Metropolitan Stadium
Twins 3 (34-33), White Sox (39-26)
The Twins rallied for three runs in the eighth inning to take the rubber game in their three game series with the White Sox. The game winning run came on a two run pinch hit triple by Ear Battey. Cesar Tovar then drove home a third insurance run the inning.
A pretty good start by Tommy John went to waste. He threw seven shutout innings but then it was the eighth where he had his problems. He gave up the three runs on six hits and two walks with four strikeouts in eight innings and the loss drops him to 6-4 on the season. Jim Merritt improved to 5-0 with the win. He gave up one run on three hits and a walk with three strikeouts.
Don Buford drove in the only White Sox run of the game. He went one for four and he had one of only three White Sox hits.
