White Sox land saving starter but late for Forster
The White Sox may be too late to salvage their AL West hopes as Terry Forster finally delivers a strong start after Wilbur Wood’s heavy workload. Forster, 2L, earned his first complete game since high school in a 4-1 win over Milwaukee, while Carlos May drove in three to pace Chicago’s eight-hit attack. AL scores from other games are noted, with Oakland, Baltimore, Detroit, and New York posting wins.
