A homer by Harmon Killebrew in the sixth inning for the Twins' fifth and last hit off Wilbur Wood was enough to beat the White Sox, 1-0. Jim Perry, who yielded six hits, gave up a double by Jay Johnstone in the ninth and was lifted after Dick Allen grounded out, Johnstone holding second. Wayne Granger, in relief, passed Carlos May intentionally and then saved the game when Ed Spiezio flied out and Luis Alvarado grounded into a forceout.
