1967 American League Pennant Race

July 31, 1967 at Cleveland Stadium
White Sox 4 (58-42), Indians 2

The White Sox continued to hold on to first place despite a push by a variety of opponents.  This time they did it with an impressive 4-2 win in ten innings over the Indians.  Boyer singled home Buford in the top of the ninth to send the game into extra frames and then Rocky Colavito belted a two run homer in the top of the tenth to win it.

Bob Locker improved to 5-2 on the season with the win.  He gave up two hits in two shutout innings of relief.  Fred Klages was knocked around for two runs and he didn’t even make it out of the third inning.
