Foli also had an RBI triple in the sixth. Bruce Kison scattered four hits over seven innings for his first victory since last September 29.

White Sox 4, Tigers 3 at Detroit (day game):
The White Sox stretched ther winning streak to six games by edging the Tigers, 4-3.

Rudy Law delivered a run-scoring single in the second and added an RBI triple in the ninth. Salome Barojas gained his eighth save despite allowing a solo pinch-homer by Tom Brookens in the ninth.

Brewers 6, Twins 2 at Milwaukee (day game):
Jim Gantner drove in three runs with a triple and homer and Ben Oglivie belted a two-run homer to spark the Brewers to a 6-2 decision over the Twins and a sweep of the four-game series. Oglivie's round-tripper broke a 2-2 tie in the fifth inning and Gantner drilled a solo shot in the sixth. Gantner's three-bagger drove home two runs in the fourth.

Indians 14, A's 2 at Oakland (day game):
Two homers by Andre Thornton paced the Indians to a 14-2 rout of the A's. Thornton smashed a two-run round-tripper in the first inning and hit another two-run shot in the third.

Combining on a five-hitter, Tommy John and Rich Gossage pitched the Yankees to a 3-0 blanking of the Mariners.
