Called up from Iowa (American Association), Bart Johnson yielded only two hits and pitched the White Sox to a 3-1 victory over the Tigers. After Norm Cash homered for the Tigers' run in the second inning, Johnson retired 20 straight batters before Mickey Stanley singled for the other hit in the ninth. The White Sox scored all of their runs off Mickey Lolich in the third on a double by Bucky Dent, intentional pass to Dick Allen with two out, singles by Bill Melton and Ken Henderson and a wild throw by Jim Northrup.
