A three-run triple by Lamar Johnson keyed a four-run fifth inning that carried the White Sox to a 7-4 verdict over the Blue Jays. The Sox took a 3-2 lead in the fourth frame on a sacrifice fly by Junior Moore and knocked out Jays starter Paul Mirabella with three straight singles in the fifth. Reliever Tom Buskey then came on with the bases loaded and was greeted by Johnson's three-bagger. A double by Jim Morrison plated Johnson. [The Sporting News]
