The 1967 AL Pennant Race – 42 – Twins & Red Sox lose, Wsox lose two

Standings and scores of the baseball wars on September 27, 1967

The Twins lose to the Angels 5-1 as Dean Chance gives up four runs in the top of the fourth inning. The Twins used 22 players and get 9 hits but could only score once. 

The Red Sox get shutout 6-0 and the White Sox lose a DH to the KC A’s 5-2 and 4-0. The Tigers were idle. The Twins are alone on top with a full game lead on the Tigers and the Sox and are up 1.5 games on the Mighty Whitey’s. What a pennant race!
