Jerry Terrell's fourth hit of the night, a ninth-inning triple to right, drove in the deciding run as the Twins defeated the White Sox, 7-5, dropping Chicago out of first place in the West Division. Terrell scored an insurance run when the Sox' Dick Allen, playing second base, fumbled an easy grounder off the bat of Steve Brye.

The Chisox had cut the Twins' 5-2 lead to one run in the eighth when Ken Henderson hit a two-run homer off reliever Bill Campbell, who had rescued starter Dave Goltz in the seventh by fanning Allen with two Chicago runners aboard. The Twins wiped out a 1-0 Chicago lead with two runs in the fifth off loser Bill Moran, who was making his first big league start, then sent eight men to the plate and scored three runs in the seventh, two crossing the plate on Glenn Borgmann's single.
