White Sox 4, Athletics 3  (19-21)

The White Sox won their third straight and finished a sweep over the Athletics in a tight contest.  The A’s led for most of the game, but the White Sox finally tied it up with a single run in the seventh, and then they took the lead with two runs in the eighth.

Frank Owen yielded three runs on nine hits and two walks with two strikeouts.  The White Sox managed only six hits but they made their baserunners count.  The White Sox scored both of their eighth inning runs on a throwing error by Athletic’s third baseman Art Brouthers and Billy Sullivan’s single in the seventh scored Jiggs Donahue to tie the game up.
