The White Sox ended the Yankees' nine-game winning streak, 6-5, scoring three times in the first inning on a wild pitch and a two-run double by Wayne Nordhagen. Bill Almon smacked his first A.L. homer, a solo shot in the second stanza, and Greg Luzinski doubled home two runs in the fifth. Ed Farmer stopped a N.Y. rally in the ninth inning, notching his seventh save. [The Sporting News]
