White Sox 2 (46-31), Twins 1 (43-35)
The White Sox didn’t score until the ninth inning and even when they did, it was an error. It still proved to be enough though in the 2-1 win over the Twins. With the bases loaded and two outs, Ron Hansen reached on an error by Zoilo Versalles that scored both the tying and winning runs in the bottom of the ninth. The loss blew a spectacular outing by Dean Chance, who was credited with giving up the two unearned runs on six hits. Gary Peters gave up just one run on two hits in eight innings and he didn’t even pick up the the win. That went to Hoyt Wilhelm, who threw a shutout ninth inning.
Tommy McCraw had three of the White Sox six hits in the game and he also scored on the error in the ninth. Tony Oliva singled and he drove in the only run of the game for the Twins.
