Ken Henderson hit a grand slam for his first A. L. homer to lift the White Sox to a 6-3 victory over the Athletics. Catfish Hunter, pitching for the A's with a 3-2 lead, was lifted in the eighth inning after giving up a single to Pat Kelly. Darold Knowles relieved and walked Carlos May. Rollie Fingers took over and struck out Dick Allen before passing Bill Melton to load the bases. Henderson followed with his grand slam on a 3-and-2 pitch.
