September 2, 1918 - In a season ending double header at Detroit, George “Buck” Weaver rapped out eight hits in 10 at bats. The 1918 season ended early because of World War I. The Sox would lose the games, 11-5 and 7-3. He went 5 for 5 in the first game and 3 for 5 in the second. He had two doubles among the eight hits.

 

September 2, 1937 - In a game at Comiskey Park, Sox third baseman LouBoze” Berger and outfielder Mike Kreevich led off the Sox half of the first with back-to-back home runs. It was the first time that ever happened in team history. The Sox beat Boston 4-2.

 

September 2, 1995 - Tim Raines had his American League record of 40 consecutive steals snapped when he was thrown out in the third inning. Toronto’s Randy Knorr was the man who threw him out in the Sox 10-4 win.
