With designated hitter Paul Householder leading the charge, the Chicago White Sox defeated the Texas Rangers, 14-4, at Comiskey Park. Householder went 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. Bruce Ruffin earned the win to go to 9-8. He allowed 4 earned runs on 10 hits, with 5 walks and 6 strikeouts. The last-place Rangers have lost 5 consecutive games.

Bill Pecota had a big 2-run single for the White Sox in the bottom of the first inning. With Chicago leading 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a slider from Fernando Valenzuela and stroked the single to right-center. It was his 8th hit of the season, and more importantly, it put the White Sox ahead, 3-0.

"We'll pop the top on a cold one and get back to work tomorrow," Pecota said.
