1914 â Walter Johnson relieves in the 8th inning with his Senators holding a 3 â 2 lead over the White Sox. On the first pitch, Jack Fournier hits a home run to tie the game. Fournierâs next at bat up comes in the 10th and he homers again to give the Sox a 4 â 3 win. This is the first time Johnson has been reached for two home runs in a game by the same batter (Lou Gehrig will match it August 13, 1926). Last night the Sox beat Johnson 2 â 1 and Fournier was 3-for-3 with two triples against the âBig Train.â
