Playing in their first postseason game since the 1959 World Series, the White Sox jumped out to a 1-0 series lead behind a complete-game victory by Hoyt, the American League Cy Young Award winner. Rudy Law scored the game's first run on a Tom Paciorek, and after a 42-minute rain delay in the fourth inning, the White Sox made it 2-0 when Paciorek walked to lead off the sixth, moved to third when Greg Luzinski reached on an Eddie Murray error and scored when Rookie of the Year Ron Kittle grounded into a double play. Cal Ripken Jr. drove in Tito Landrum with two outs in the bottom of the ninth for the Orioles' only run.

RoadHR=Tito Landrum (1)|HomeHR=|

Baltimore eliminated Chicago with a three-run outburst in the top of the 10th, advancing to their first World Series since 1979. White Sox manager Tony LaRussa decided to save Hoyt for a potential Game 5 start and went with Britt Burns instead. Burns pitched nine shutout innings, but the White Sox couldn't push across a run, with shortstop Jerry Dybzinski making a critical baserunning mistake that cost Chicago the potential winning run. With one out in the 10th, Tito Landrum hit a solo homer, ending Burns' night and giving the Orioles all the offense they needed.

Chicago scored 1 run in the final 30 innings of the series, and hit .211 as a team with no homers. Four of the team's starters, Harold Baines, Carlton Fisk, Luzinski and Law, all hit below .200. The Orioles would go on to win the 1983 World Series, while the White Sox would have just one winning season in the next seven, and wouldn't make the playoffs again until 1993.
