Lance Johnson gave the 1994 Chicago White Sox hope when he hit a 2-run triple in the 6th inning. The Sox knocked out 1993 Toronto Blue Jays starter Dave Stewart and had a 4-1 lead. Joe Carter hit a 2-run homer in the bottom of the inning to cut the lead to 1. Wilson Alvarez turned things over to Jose DeLeon, who pitched a scoreless 7th. But in the 8th, Robin Ventura bobbled a grounder, and Tony Fern\u00e1ndez doubled in the tying run. DeLeon was ejected two batters later when tempers led to him hitting Ed Sprague. Tony Castillo pitched a perfect 10th for the Blue Jays. Dennis Cook came in for the Sox. That’s when Joe Carter did it again, launching his 2nd homer of the game, and 3rd of the series, into the seats for a walk-off 5-4 win. That completed the 3-game sweep, knocking the White Sox out of the Best of the 1990s Tournament. The Blue Jays now advance to face the 1998 New York Yankees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
