A two-run triple by Chico Ruiz in the fourth inning sent Lloyd Allen on the way to his first major league victory as the Angels defeated the White Sox, 5-1. Alex Johnson singled and Jim Spencer walked before Ruiz broke the 1-1 tie with his three-bagger. Allen needed help from Dave LaRoche, who relieved with the bases loaded in the eighth inning.
