Senators 4, White Sox 3
The White Sox closed out their season with their fifth straight loss. They did break a three game streak where they had shut out and while they made a game of this one, they ended up stranding the tying run at first base in the bottom of the ninth.
Joe Horlen gave up two unearned runs in six innings in a no-decision start. Tommy John gave up one unearned run in the top of the seventh that broke a 2-2 tie and he dropped to 10-13. It was a sloppy game as four White Sox errors led to four unearned runs.
Horlen helped out his own cause with a single and two RBIs. Tommy McCraw had the only extra base hit for the White Sox with a double.
