See the source imageOctober 11, 1991


 The AL Championship Series moved to Detroit for the next 3 games but the results weren't any  better for the Tigers. Up 2 games to none, the Chicago White Sox won Game 3 tonight by the score of 5-3. Detroit got on the scoreboard 1st by plating 3 runs in the 4th inning. But the White Sox came back in the 5th inning and put 5 runs on the board on 6 hits and a costly 2 base error by centerfielder Milt Cuyler. Melido Perez (pictured) came on in relief for Charlie Hough in the 4th inning and shut the door on Detroit over the next 3 2/3 innings. Perez got the Win and Scott Radinsky pitched 2 perfect innings for the Save. Chicago now has a commanding 3-0 lead in this best of 7 Series.

In a two run game the Chicago White Sox got by the Detroit Tigers by the score
of 5 to 3.
 
Chicago did all the necessary damage in the 5th inning when they came up with
5 runs on 6 hits.  The key at-bat was by Frank Thomas who deflated the mood
of the partisan fans when he slapped a single bringing home two baserunners.
Detroit went down without a fight in the bottom of the 9th.  
 
Melido Perez(1-0) went 3 and 2/3 innings allowing no runs for the win. Scott
Radinsky was credited with his 1st save.  Bill Gullickson(0-1) was the losing
pitcher.  He allowed Chicago 5 runs in 4 and 1/3 innings of work.
