September 24, 1967 at Cleveland Stadium
White Sox 3 (89-68), Indians 1
The White Sox got a nice team effort from their pitching staff as they passed the Tigers to move into third place in the American League. Cisco Carlos threw two shutout innings to open the game up before Don McMahon threw five solid frames in which he gave up just one run. McMahon earned the win and he improved to 6-2. Bob Locker threw the final 1 2/3 innings and he didn’t allow a run to save his 20th game of the season.
Don Buford singled and he drove in two runs in the win. Ken Boyer had two hits and one of which was a solo homer, his fourth of the season.
