Homers by Reggie Jackson, Lou Piniella and Jerry Narron powered the Yankees to a 9-1 verdict, extending the White Sox losing streak to seven games. Jackson connected for a two-run round-tripper in the first inning and Piniella followed with a circuit clout. Narron belted a solo blast in the fourth frame. [The Sporting News] |
