Richie Zisk and Oscar Gamble smashed back-to-back homers in the second inning to support the pitching of Wilbur Wood, who defeated the Brewers, 3-1, to enable the White Sox to move into first place in the West Division by two percentage points over the Rangers. The Royals and Twins were one-half game behind in a tight race. Wood yielded only five hits in gaining his first victory since July 22.
