Despite a fine performance by first baseman Junzo Kato, the Chicago White Sox lost to the Baltimore Orioles, 7-5. Kato was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times. Baltimore starter Randy Johnson Jr. was credited with the win after throwing 98 pitches over 6 innings. His record now stands at 10-5.

The Orioles got a big hit from shortstop Andres Leon. In the bottom of the fifth, Leon pounded a 2-run home run to right-center. His 7th home run of the season put the Orioles ahead, 6-1.

"Enjoyed this one," Leon told the Baltimore Chronicle. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
