Jerry Janeski, who pitched the first seven innings, batted in three runs with a bases-loaded single and a squeeze bunt to provide the White Sox with a 6-3 victory over the Yankees, who were stopped on their six-game winning streak. Janeski hit his single in the second inning. The pitcher's bunt and a double by Walt Williams added two runs in the fourth.

Bill Melton homered in the fifth. Duane Josephson, who had four hits, doubled and scored on a hit by Ken Berry in the eighth. Bobby Murcer and Gene Michael homered for the Yankees. [The Sporting News]
