1967: Wayne Causey’s three-run home run in the eighth was all the first-place White Sox needed in a 3-1 win at Baltimore. Causey’s blast, his only one with the Sox, came with one out and Tommie Agee and Don Buford on base.

 

1973: The 1973 season was short-circuited when first baseman reigning American League MVP suffered a fractured kneecap in a 2-0 win at California. Allen was hitting .310 with 16 home runs and 41 RBIs at the time of the injury and would be limited to five at bats for therest of the season. When Allen went down, the Sox were 37-32 and one game out of first place in the American League West. The Sox finished 77-85, 17 games out of first. Also on this date, outfielder Rick Reichardt, who had been battling with management over pay, was released.
