Athletics 4, White Sox 0 (89-70)
The White Sox playoff chances hung by a thread as they dropped their second game of a doubleheader to the Athletics. The two losses dropped the White Sox all the way to fourth place and they needed to win all of their remaining three games just to clinch a tie and even then they needed help. In this one, Catfish Hunter shut out the White Sox on just three hits. The only hitter to reach base twice was Don Buford with a single and a walk.
Joe Horlen dropped to 19-7 on the season. He gave up three runs on six hits with a strikeout in 5 1/3 innings.
