Three successive pinch-hitters came through when the Red Sox rallied for four runs in the ninth inning to defeat the White Sox, 7-6. Jim Kaat, who was coasting with a 6-3 lead, walked Jim Rice for openers. After Fred Lynn forced Rice, Carl Yastrzemski doubled. When the White Sox brought in righthander Rich Gossage, the Red Sox called on three lefthanded pinch-hitters.

Bernie Carbo, batting for Dwight Evans, doubled to score Lynn. Tim McCarver went up for Doug Griffin and singled, Carbo stopping at third. Cecil Cooper batted for Bob Montgomery and singled to drive in Carbo. Rick Miller ran for McCarver and, after Juan Beniquez popped up, Rick Burleson singled to score Miller with the winning run.
