Twins Top White Sox in Extras, 4-3
Minnesota picked up a win at Metropolitan Stadium, toppling the Chicago White Sox, 4-3. Pitcher Bert Blyleven was one of the reasons the Twins triumphed. Reliever Charlie Leibrandt picked up the win. His record improves to 6-1. Cecil Upshaw took the loss. The Twins, at 83-66, have now won 4 straight.

The Twins procured the win, in large part because of shortstop Roy Smalley. In the bottom of the 15th, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

"The ending was a real humdinger," Blyleven told reporters after the game.
