Recording their fifth straight victory, the Yankees scored two runs in the ninth inning to down the White Sox, 3-1. With one out in the ninth, Lou Piniella singled to center and Chris Chambliss doubled down the left field line to score Piniella. Chambliss took third on throw home and scored on a suicide squeeze bunt by Graig Nettles. The game marked the end of Reggie Jackson's five-day suspension, but the Yankees' slugger never entered the game.
