Two homers and two sacrifice flies provided the scoring production to enable the White Sox to defeat the Brewers, 6-5. The White Sox counted twice in the fourth inning on a single by Carlos May, two walks, and scoring flies by Ken Berry and Bobby Knoop. May homered with two men on base in the fifth and, one out later, Ed Herrmann also hit for the circuit to supply what proved to be the eventual winning run. The Brewers had a homer by Jerry McNertney. [The Sporting News]
