Morrison Leads White Sox to 16-7 Win Over Blue Jays
The 16-7 Chicago win over Toronto was due in large part to Jim Morrison. The White Sox second baseman was 4-5 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 times and driving in 4. Chicago has a record of 31-32, placing them 4th in the American League West Division.

Chicago third baseman Wayne Gross delivered a run-scoring single in the top of the first. Overall, he went 3 for 6, including 1 home run, 1 single, and 1 double. He scored 2 runs and batted in 5.

White Sox manager Mel Clark wasn't all too pleased, despite the win, telling reporters that the performance highlighted some clear areas for improvement moving forward. He refused to be more specific, however. "I'm not gonna publicize our weaknesses," he said. "That stuff stays in the clubhouse."
