After the game, White Sox manager Kid Gleason voiced his optimism: "For the second day in a row, my gang played the kind of baseball it has been playing all season. Even though we are still one game behind, we will win for sure. All I wanted to see was my gang get back in form. All it has to do now is to keep that form and the Reds can't possibly win a game."

With the Reds still leading the Series 4 games to 3, both teams headed back to Chicago for the Series conclusion.
