Today in White Sox History: September 3

Going 2-for-3 with a double and a walk in a 1-0 win at St. Louis, Eddie Collins began a 20-game hit streak that would end as the longest yet in White Sox history. Collins hit .464 over the course of the run, which lasted the balance of September and pushed the Pale Hose to wins in 15 games. Collins had an on-base of .543 and .594 slugging over the 20 games as well.

This mark was snapped just four years later, in 1920, by ... Collins! The future Hall-of-Famer had a hitting streak of 22 games in August-September.
