1939-46 Salutation Exhibits, Luke Appling (Made in USA right).
On September 3, 1936, Luke Appling’s 27-game hitting streak was snapped by Red Sox' Wes Ferrell, but the White Sox still won 3-2, at Fenway.
The White Sox shortstop went hitless in four plate appearances, that included two bases-on-balls. At the time, the future Hall of Famer established a franchise record for consecutive games with a hit, and that year he led the American League with a .388 batting average.
Happy Wednesday friends and card folk.
Have a great day! 🤝
