The White Sox and Athletics battled to a 3-3 tie in a 17-inning game stopped by curfew after five hours, two minutes of play. The White Sox, after failing to hold a 2-0 lead in the regulation distance, went ahead in the 13th, 3-2, on a triple by Pat Kelly and a wild pitch, but the A's rallied to forge a new deadlock in their half when pinch-hitter Gene Tenace singled with two out to drive in Angel Mangual.

The game was finished prior to the next night's regularly-scheduled contest between the clubs. [The Sporting News]
