Notes & reviews
- 343' HR
- 354' HR
- 1 hour rain delay
- Jerry Terrell caught Nyls Nyman with a variation of the hidden ball trick; after two throws to 1B by the pitcher, Terrell faked his throw back to the mound the third time; Nyman moved off bag too quickly; White Sox Coach Alex Monchak ejected by 1B umpire Bill Kunkel
- 43 minute delay and then rain-out
