Blue Moon Odom, making his first start of the season for the White Sox, and Ray Bare, making his first start in six weeks for the Tigers, each emerged with a victory as the clubs split a twi-night doubleheader. Odom, who needed help from Pete Vuckovich in the seventh inning, received credit for a 9-3 win in the opener, while Bare won the nightcap, 5-1, with the assistance of John Hiller, who relieved in the eighth.
