Nolan Ryan walked nine and struck out only six, but yielded just five hits and gained his fourth straight victory when the Angels defeated the White Sox, 8-4. Ken Henderson and Jorge Orta each homered with a man on base to account for the White Sox runs. Bruce Bochte had three hits, including two triples, and Dave Chalk had a pair of doubles among his three hits to lead the Angels' attack, driving in three runs apiece. [The Sporting News]
