vera socked a single. double and
home run tonight as the Chi
cago White Sox defeated the
Brooklyn Dodgers, 6-2.
1t was Brooklyn's sixth defeat
in eight games this spring. Home
runs by Junior Gillian and
Sandy Amoros averted a shutout
for the world champions.
Gillian hit his home run as
the Dodgers leadoff batter

hit thereafter in his Inning
chore. He was the first White
Sox pitcher to go that far this
spring.

Pierce left the game. Sherm Lol-
lars home run against Billy
Loes in the second matched Gill
liam's blast. The White Sox took
advantage of wildness by Bob
Walz. plus a costly error by
Randy Jackson, to score four
runs in the sixth.

Bouchee to fill the bases.
Bob Bowman looped a single

grounder and Kazanski booted
