White Sox Snatch Late Win
The Chicago White Sox knocked off the Texas Rangers, 6-4, at Arlington Stadium 1979. Mike Heath was a big reason Chicago won. The second baseman went 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. With the win, Chicago raised its record to 63-56.

Heath had a timely hit for Chicago in the top of the eighth. With Texas trailing 4-3, he turned a first pitch fastball into a 2-run home run. It was his 9th home run of the season, making it 5-4, Chicago.

"You work hard, day in and day out, hoping to give the fans something to cheer about. Today was a good day," Heath told the Chicago Times.
