Pushing across a run in the bottom of the 11th inning, the Royals edged the White Sox, 7-6, Chicago's sixth straight loss. The score was 6-6 with one out in the 11th when John Wathan, George Brett and Amos Otis stroked consecutive singles to end the game.

The White Sox had achieved a 5-5 tie in the ninth on an RBI pinch-single by Jerry Hairston. A run-scoring single by Greg Luzinski gave the Sox a 6-5 lead in the top of the 10th, but K.C. came back in the bottom of the frame to score on a walk to Otis and a triple by Frank White. [The Sporting News]
