Game 103: Milwaukee chokes up a 7-2 lead, with Pedro Guerrrero's three-run homer off Ron Reed in the eighth putting KC on top 8-7, but the Riders rally for two runs in the ninth, taking the lead on Rich Gedman's RBI single. Rich Gossage allows a one-out single in the bottom half but retires the side to preserve a 9-8 win.
Game 104: Albert Williams throws seven scoreless innings, Damaso Garcia hits his third home run, and the Riders blank Kansas City 8-0.
Game 105: The Black Sox open the series with Steve Carlton, the Riders with Britt Burns. The results are somewhat expected. Carlton throws seven blanks to win his 15th game and Steve Bedrosian finishes off a 3-0 shutout, snapping the Riders' four-game winning streak.
Game 106: Bruce Benedict's error leads to four unearned runs in the fifth, and the Black Sox finish a sweep of the Riders, winning 9-4 behind Larry McWilliams.
The Riders now travel to Detroit and Pittsburgh.
