This Date In White Sox History - May 28th






May 28, 1973 - A night Wilbur Wood will never forget. Two days earlier the game between Cleveland and the White Sox was suspended by curfew tied at two after 16 innings. Rain washed out action on the 27th so when the suspended game was resumed on the 28th, it was Wood’s turn to pitch. He went out and threw five innings before the White Sox would win it 6 - 3 in 21 innings on a Dick Allen three-run walk off home run off of Indians' reliever Ed Farmer. Game one was also the MLB debut for White Sox outfielder Bill Sharp. Thirty minutes later Wood went out and started the regularly scheduled game. He would toss a complete game, four hit shut out, winning 4 - 0. Two wins in one evening! His line for the night, 14 innings pitched, one run, six hits, nine strikeouts, two wins.
