Rich Wortham and Ed Farmer combined to pitch the White Sox to a 3-0 victory over the A's. Wortham worked 7 1/3 innings, allowing four hits, before giving way to Farmer, who earned his 17th save. A homer by Lamar Johnson in the second inning was enough to beat Matt Keough, who pitched his 13th complete game of the season. [The Sporting News]
