Permitting just five singles while notching his first major league shutout, Steve Trout pitched the White Sox to a 7-0 triumph over the Orioles. An RBI double by Wayne Nordhagen gave the Pale Hose a run in the second inning and run-scoring singles by Chet Lemon amd Milt May and doubles by Lamar Johnson, Junior Moore and Kevin Bell produced four more tallies in the fourth.
