September 3, 20232 yr September 3, 1936 - Luke Appling’s then club record 27 game hitting streak ended in Boston courtesy of pitcher Wes Farrell. He’d go 0-2 with two walks in a 3-2 White Sox win. His record would stand until 2004 when Carlos Lee broke it by hitting in 28 straight games. September 3, 1990 - Sox relief pitcher Bobby Thigpen set the Major League mark when he got his 47th save of the season in a win over Kansas City. He’d finish the year with 57 saves which stood as the record until 2008. For the season, he’d also win four games and have an ERA of 1.83… naturally he was named the Fireman of the Year as well as an American League All-Star. September 3, 2022 – He had been one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball for the season and on this night, Dylan Cease turned it up a notch against the Twins. Cease had a no-hitter with two out in the ninth inning at Guaranteed Rate Field before a slider cut too much of the plate to Luis Arraez. Arraez didn’t miss it, driving a solid single into right center field ending the no-hit possibility. Cease would finish with a brilliant one-hitter in the Sox 13-0 win. Cease struck out seven in the game recording his 13th win of the year.
