J.C. Martin got the White Sox on the board with his 1st home run of the Tournament. Tommy McCraw singled, and Don Buford hit a double in the gap to put Chicago up 2-0. Buford scored on Pete Ward&#8217;s single to give the Sox a 3-0 lead. That inning was all they&#8217;d need, which was good, since Ralph Terry held Chicago to just two baserunners the rest of the game. Pizarro allowed an RBI single to Elston Howard in the 4th, and a solo homer to Roger Maris in the 9th, but was able to close out a complete game. Pizarro is now 4-1 in the Tournament with a 2.84 ERA. The series heads to Chicago for Game 3. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/baseballmaelstrom.com\/STB60s\/Scoresheets\/09-30-2025_CHW_NYY.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"'64 White Sox @ '61 Yankees - 9\/30\/25\">&#8217;64 White Sox @ &#8217;61 Yankees &#8211; 9\/30\/25<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Juan Pizarro held the New York Yankees to 2 runs on 6 hits, striking out 8 to tie the series at a game a piece.
