Today In White Sox History - July 25th


 

July 25, 1967- The White Sox sweep a pair from Cleveland‚ winning both games with game-ending home runs‚ a first in the AL. It has happened once in the NL. In Game 1‚ J.C. Martin‚ a replacement catcher in the 7th‚ hits a 2-run homer in the 9th to make Hoyt Wilhelm the winner in relief. Martin also homers in game 2‚ but it is Ken Berry's 2-run homer in the bottom of the 16th that wins it for the White Sox‚ 6-5. The Sox have just 7 hits in game 2 while the Indians squander 17. This is the second time in history and the 2nd time in 5 years that a doubleheader ends with two walkoff homers. The next time will be May 28‚ 2004.
