White Sox Back On Top After Win Over Brewers
Wilbur Wood altered his delivery and throwing style to end a long winless stretch with a 3 1 victory over Milwaukee. The knuckleballer shifted from a loose elbow and pitching hand to an over the top motion and mixed in more fast balls to minimize walks. Money was struck out on a fall ball in the ninth.
