Frank Smith's No-Hitter
The Chicago White Sox held the Detroit Tigers without a hit on September 6, 1905, winning 15–0. Frank Smith started the game for the Chicago White Sox.
It was played at Bennett Park in Detroit. The announced attendance was 3,500. Jimmy Wiggs started for the Detroit Tigers. Silk O'Loughlin umpired behind the plate. It was played in daylight, as every game was: the first night game in the major leagues came in 1935.
The game log records each side's starting pitcher rather than everyone who appeared, so where a no-hitter was finished by a second pitcher this page names the man who began it.
