Bill Wight tossed a complete game at Comiskey Park where the Baltimore Orioles

beat the Chicago White Sox by the score of 4 to 3.



Baltimore scored all of the necessary runs in the 5th inning scoring 4 runners

on 4 hits. The big moment was provided by Willie Miranda who silenced the

stadium when he ripped a base-knock which was good for two runs. Chicago

threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short.



Wight(4-4), allowing 3 runs for the game, picked up the victory. The loss was

charged to Harry Byrd(13-8). When questioned, Paul Richards remarked, 'It's

been a while since a win felt this good - heck, it's been a while since we

had a win period!'
