White Sox Raise Rally Flag, Beat St. Louis, 5-4
The South Side White Sox topped the St. Louis Cardinals by the score of 5-4, with the biggest share of the credit going to designated hitter Dusty Rhodes. Rhodes went 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once for the White Sox on the day. South Side reliever Scott Stewart got the win, raising his record to 1-1. John Lackey was tagged with the loss. The White Sox bumped their record to 19-18 with this latest triumph.

Rhodes had a game-changing home run in the top of the ninth. On a first pitch fastball from John Lackey, he banged a 3-run home run to left-center, giving the White Sox a 5-4 lead. It was the 7th home run of the year for Rhodes.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said St. Louis manager Doug Morton. "But we decided not to take it."
