The four-hit pitching of Dave Stieb, who posted a 6-0 victory, enabled the Blue Jays to split a doubleheader after the White Sox won the first game, 6-1. The Blue Jays' first three batters, Alfredo Griffin, Bob Bailor and Roy Howell, hit singles to produce their lone run off Ken Kravec in the lidlifter. Jorge Orta drove in three runs for the White Sox with a sacrifice fly and homer. Greg Pryor also homered and Lamar Johnson knocked in two runs with a single.
