APRIL 16, 1940--  It was a cold, raw day at Comiskey Park with just 14,000 fans in attendance as Bob Feller and his Indians no-hit the Sox and won 1-0.

APRIL 10, 1959--  Nellie Fox hit a two-run homer in the 14th as the Sox won 9-7 in Detroit  He went 5-for-7 that day.  The Sox finished 94-60 to finish first that year, but lost in the World Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers.

APRIL 10, 1981--  Carlton Fisk's first game as a Sox player, and against his old team, the Red Sox.  Hit a 3-run homer in the 8th as the Sox won 5-2.  He had signed a five-year deal with the Sox for $2.9 million.
