A throwing error by Al Oliver in the sixth inning enabled the White Sox to defeat the Rangers, 3-2. Ralph Garr doubled with one out and Chet Lemon walked. Mike Squires then flied to Oliver and when the left fielder threw high to second, Garr circled third and continued home to score the winning run.
