Minnie Minoso had 4 hits and 3 RBI as the potent Chicago White Sox topped the
pitiful Kansas City Athletics by a score of 13 to 8 at Municipal
Stadium.
Minoso enjoyed a big evening at the plate. He doubled in the 1st inning,
laced a one-base hit bringing in a run in the 5th inning, doubled which
plated a run in the 7th inning and lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' (his 9th of
the season) in the 9th inning. Despite scoring in 5 separate innings, Kansas
City could not get the win.
Harry Byrd(12-6) went 5 and 1/3 innings allowing 4 runs for the win. The
losing pitcher was Alex Kellner(5-10). He was knocked around, surrendering 5
runs in 4 and 1/3 innings.
Chicago continued their winnings ways improving their record to a league
leading 73-35. They are 8-2 in their last ten games. Kansas City can't seem
to snap out of their recent 'funk'. Now they have a miserable 2-8 record
over the last couple weeks.
