A two-out, two-run homer by Lamar Johnson in the eighth inning lifted the White Sox to a 5-3 victory over the Brewers. The big blow followed a single by Don Kessinger and snapped a 2-2 tie. The Chisox added another run in the ninth on successive singles by Bill Nahorodny, Bob Molinaro and Kessinger. Wilbur Wood pitched a complete game to notch his second win against three losses.
