Britt Burns and Mike Proly combined on a four-hitter to carry the White Sox to a 3-0 victory over the A's. Burns allowed two hits over five innings and was removed in favor of Proly because of a slight case of the flu.

The White Sox scored all their runs with two out in the fourth inning. A single by Thad Bosley, infield hit by Bruce Kimm, double by Greg Pryor and single by Bob Molinaro produced the tallies. [The Sporting News]
