CHICAGO -- As intense as you would want a rubber match to be when a Division title is on the line. . . and extra innings to boot. However, the White Sox emerged 4-3 victors when Ron Leflore lifted a single to RCF scoring Mike Squires with the walk-off run in the 11th making a winner of Lamarr Hoyt (6-3) in relief. Chicago led 3-2 heading into the 9th, but Klutts (5) took Kevin Hickey deep to tie it at 3-3.
