LaMarr Hoyt stretched his winning streak to 14 games over two seasons by pitching the White Sox to a 3-2 victory over the Royals. The A.L. record for consecutive wins over two seasons is 17, held by Johnny Allen of Cleveland and Dave McNally of Baltimore. The major league record is 24, set by Carl Hubbell of the New York Giants in 1936-37.

The Pale Hose scored all their runs in the sixth inning. They loaded the bases on singles by Bill Almon and Tony Bernazard and a walk to Steve Kemp. Greg Luzinski delivered the first tally with a single and Tom Paciorek followed with a two-run single. [The Sporting News]
