A sacrifice fly by Roy White in the 14th inning scored Fred Stanley and gave the Yankees a 3-2 victory over the White Sox, who went down to their eighth straight defeat. With one out, Stanley singled and went to third when White Sox reliever Dave Hamilton threw wildly on an infield hit by Mickey Rivers. White then followed with his game-winning sacrifice fly.
