4/28-4/30/70 vs Baltimore

4/28 Baltimore 3 White Sox 2
It looked like it was Tommy John's day. He was winning 2-1 in the ninth thanks to his own RBI single. Then Paul Blair took him deep for a 2-run homer in the ninth to beat us.

4/29 White Sox 4 Orioles 2
Joe Horlen allowed just 2 earned runs in 8.2 IP while striking out 6 and allowing only 1 walk. Rich McKiney gave us the lead with an RBI double in the 7th.

4/30 White Sox 6 Orioles 5
Neither Ken Frailing nor Wilbur Wood pitched very well, but Rich McKinney was the hero once again when his sac fly to CF Paul Blair scored Steven Houck to give us a 6-5 lead in the 8th. Boog Powell was 5-for-5 with a homer and 4 singles for the Orioles,

We somehow managed to win the series against Baltimore.

Record: 8-13
