Strangely, the Sox were not helped by having three (scheduled!) days off at the end of September, as they dropped two of three to end the season in St. Louis.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile Cleveland took six of eight and won the pennant by two games.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1965<\/strong><br \/>\nThe White Sox set the franchise record by hitting their 15th consecutive solo home run.<\/p>\n<p>The streak started at Baltimore on September 2, in the second game of a doubleheader, when <strong>Johnny Romano<\/strong> homered. The run continued until a game on this date was played in New York.

The righthander dropped to 7-20, and by finishing 8-20 on the season he became not only the final 20-game loser of the 20th Century but the only pitcher ever to lose 20 games for a winning team (Oakland finished 83-79.<\/p>\n<p>This was one of just two relief appearances for Kingman in 1980, and it\u2019s ironic he was saddled with such a momentous loss out of the bullpen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2015<\/strong><br \/>\nThe White Sox beat the Yankees in New York, 5-2, for the franchise\u2019s 9,000th win. <strong>Carlos Rod\u00f3n<\/strong> went six innings, allowing two runs, to get the win. <strong>David Robertson <\/strong>closed it out for his 32nd save. <strong>Mike Olt<\/strong> and <strong>Gordon Beckham<\/strong> hit solo home runs for the White Sox.<\/p>\n<p>0 Comments<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The South Siders hang a record loss on an unfortunate A<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":98525,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-98524","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
