5/3/75 OAK @ CWS
Ken Holtzman picked up his third win of the year for Oakland, shutting out the White Sox 2-0. This was a pretty good pitching matchup between Holtzman & Jim Kaat, who went 8 innings, giving up 6 hits and 3 walks.
The fourth inning proved to be Kaat’s downfall. Reggie Jackson singled to lead off then inning, going to 3rd on a Gene Tenace double. After two pop outs, Claudell Washington’s single scored both runners for the only runs of the game.
Chicago’s only threat was in the bottom of the third. Jerry Hairston led off with a single, followed by another single by Carlos May. Each runner picked up another base when Bill North bobbled the ball, but Hairston got a little greedy, and was thrown out by North trying to score. May took 3rd on the throw. But he was stranded about Jorge Orta grounded out and Pat Kelly flew out to right.
