Homers by Ken Henderson, Chuck Brinkman and Dick Allen, accounting for the first four runs, powered the White Sox to a 6-2 victory over the Angels. Henderson started off with a circuit clout in the second inning and, after a walk to Rick Reichardt, Brinkman hit the first homer of his major league career. Allen added his round-tripper in the third inning. [The Sporting News]
