Apparently overworked, Wilbur Wood suffered his fourth straight defeat and sixth in his last seven decisions as the White Sox lost to the Athletics, 7-1. Wood gave up 14 hits and all of the A's runs before being lifted after seven innings.

The A's wrapped up the game with four runs in the third on singles by Sal Bando, Deron Johnson and Gene Tenace, a wild pitch, an error that loaded the bases and single by Dick Green. Dick Allen homered for the only Pale Hose run off Dave Hamilton. [The Sporting News]
