Rain enabled the While Sox to defeat the Athletics, 4-3, by washing out the tying runs scored by the A's in the top half of the eighth inning before the game was halted by a downpour. Buddy Bradford and Ken Henderson hit homers for the White Sox, Henderson's blow in the fourth providing what proved to be the winning run.
