1967 AL Game: Chi. @ Min.

 June 24, 1967

    Chicago pitcher Gary Peters struck out 16 batters in 9 innings but ended up with a loss when the Minnesota Twins defeated the White Sox 4-3 in 10 innings. Peters only allowed 4 hits in the game and one was a 3-run homer hit by Bob Allison in the 8th inning that tied the game at 3 all. But it was the 4th and final hit allowed by Peters that proved to be a heartbreaker. The game went to extra innings and Peter's first pitch to Harmon Killebrew was hit for a game winning homerun. The 16 strikeouts was the most by any pitcher in a game this season in MLB.
