Nolan Ryan hurled a three-hitter for his second win of the season and Dave Chalk continued his torrid hitting with three singles and a double to drive in two runs as the Angels beat the White Sox, 5-0. Chalk ran his consecutive hits string to six and seven in nine at-bats. His two-run single capped a three-run third inning for all the runs Ryan needed to post his 19th career shutout. The loss went to Claude Osteen, who signed with the White Sox as a free agent earlier in the day. [The Sporting News]
