Winless in his first six starts, Ken Kravec tossed a three-hitter as the White Sox shut out the Rangers, 3-0. The first two runs came in the sixth inning on doubles by Chet Lemon, Wayne Nordhagen and Lamar Johnson. Lemon singled to lead off the eighth, moved to second on a wild pickoff attempt, advanced to third on a sacrifice and scored on a single by Mike Squires.
