A loser of seven straight decisions, Rich Gossage broke back into the victory column for the White Sox when Ralph Garr tripled in the eighth inning and outraced the throw home on a grounder by Lamar Johnson to beat the Angels, 2-1. The first White Sox run in the game off Frank Tanana was unearned, as was the Angels' only tally off Gossage. [The Sporting News] |
