NL Playoff Won't Change Chicago Plans
The Chicago White Sox, managed by Al Lopez, say the NL playoff between Milwaukee and Los Angeles won’t affect their World Series plans. The Series start could shift to Thursday or Friday, causing at most a two day change. Lollar has a bruised hand but will rest enough to heal, and Chicago hopes L.A. wins to boost the players’ share. Harmon Killebrew and Ray Sievers hit solo homers for Washington in a different note.
