White Sox 3, Yankees 1
The White Sox won their 6th straight game to take the Atlantic Conference lead for 1st place.
The Yankees scored their lone run to take a 1-0 lead in the third inning when Jeff McHugh walked, Jeff Coveney singled and Ned Coffee walked to load the bases. Then, in typical Mike Moloney fashion, he hit a deep shot to left field as a sacrifice fly to score McHugh.
The White Sox scored 3 runs to regain a 3-1 lead in the 5th inning when Dan Field and Al Wiesner walked followed by a Luke Foskett ROE. Joe Lombardi then walked to force in Dan Field to tie the score. Hugh Guilderson then hit a clutch 2-run RBI single scoring Wiesner and Foskett.
Brian Houlding picked up the Sox' win tossing 5 innings of 3-hit, 1-run ball. Eamonn McDonough closed the door for the save, tossing the final 2 innings in relief without allowing a hit.
Also for the Sox, Dan Field threw out his 4th consecutive would be base-stealer in 4 games. |
