Airtight relief pitching by Sparky Lyle highlighted the Yankees' 4-1 victory over the White Sox. Lyle took over from starter Jim Beattie with one out in the sixth after Bob Molinaro singled, Don Kessinger walked and Jorge Orta singled to drive in Molinaro with the Sox run. The ace lefty faced only 11 batters in giving up just two hits in 3 2/3 innings.
