Yankees History

May 16, 1978 at Comiskey Park
Yankees 8, White Sox 3  (19-12)

The Yankees finished up a two game sweep over the White Sox in a game that saw five Yankees have multihit games.  Lou Piniella reached base all five times with two hits and three walks while Thurman Munson went two for four with a walk, two RBIs and three runs.  Chris Chambliss singled twice and he had a team high three RBIs.

Ken Holtzman won his first decision of the season in a mediocre start.  He gave up three runs on eight hits and three walks with a strikeout in 5 1/3 innings.  Goose Gossage was exceptional in relief.  He picked up his fourth save and he got out all eleven batters that he faced.
