Jim Kaat was able to finish what he started and was credited with a complete
game as the Chicago White Sox topped the Oakland A's by a score of 6 to 1 at
Comiskey Park.

Chicago brought 5 runs across the plate in the bottom of the 7th inning when
they had 4 base hits. The key offensive moment was provided by Brian Downing
who made the home-town crowd a happy bunch when he caught a hold of a
fastball for a Grand Slam homerun (his 1st of the season). Chicago totaled 9
hits on the afternoon.

Kaat(9-5), allowing 1 run for the game, picked up the victory. Dick

chance for a no-hitter when Don Money singled with two outs in the 8th

The score was knotted at 5 after nine innings. Texas won it in the 11th
inning. Roy Smalley drew a walk. Jim Sundberg got his turn next, but he was
a strikeout victim. One out later, Mike Cubbage came to the plate and hit a
single. Hargrove stepped in and he singled giving Texas the victory and
sending the 19,139 home-town fans home happy. Both teams totaled 12 hits on
the night.

Steve Foucault(1-0) went 3 and 1/3 innings allowing 1 run for the victory. The

as the New York Yankees beat the Cleveland Indians by the count of 5 to
2.

New York took the lead for good in the top of the 2nd inning scoring 2 runners
on 4 hits. New York had 11 hits for the night.

Medich(14-5) was the winner allowing 2 runs for the game. The losing pitcher
was Don Hood(2-4). When questioned, Bill Virdon remarked, 'It's been a while

Mark Belanger had 4 hits and 4 RBI and Mike Cuellar went the distance as the
Baltimore Orioles beat the Detroit Tigers by a score of 11 to 4.

Belanger had a big evening at the plate. He slapped a base-hit which was good
for two runs in the 2nd inning, delivered a single in the 4th inning, lined a
one-base hit in the 6th inning and lifted one out of the park for a two run
home run (his 1st of the season) in the 9th inning. Baltimore had a total of
