Rains Halt PGA Play as White Sox Rally Past Yankees
In a rain disrupted day the Chicago White Sox surged back from a 5-5 tie to beat the New York Yankees 8-5 in 11 innings. Sam Mele delivered a three run homer off Bobby Hogue after a ninth inning rally that tied the game. Mele was a key off season acquisition adding power alongside Richards swift lineup. The win narrows Chicago’s gap to within a half game of the second place Boston Red Sox.

Morales credits Richardson for hitting boost and wind worries stars
Tucson first baseman Tony Morales credits Kenny Richardson with teaching him to relax bend knees and compact his swing. Morales averaging .342 with 23 doubles leads AT, while catcher Bill Hinson handles pills for weight gain and Ernie Choukolos shines behind the plate. A wind during later batting practice affected left handed hitters, but Choukolos still hit his first homer as promoter Rod Fenton and writer Skibo McKay debate wrestler vs fighter outcomes at the Sports Center for charity.
