. . . where the 1970s live forever!

Jim Kaat struck out 10, raising his career total to 1,999, and allowed only five hits in pitching the White Sox to a 3-1 victory over the Athletics. The A's run off Kaat, who was a winner for the fifth straight time, scored in the second inning on a single by Joe Rudi, a passed ball and single by Angel Mangual.

The White Sox pulled even against Ken Holtzman in the third on singles by Lamar Johnson and Jorge Orta around an error by Sal Bando. Bill Melton and Ken Henderson singled in the sixth and Johnson hit a sacrifice fly for the go-ahead run. The White Sox clinched the decision in the eighth when Henderson tripled and Tony Muser singled. [The Sporting News]
