CHICAGO —Tristan Peters<\/a> homered in a fifth straight game for the White Sox<\/a> on Wednesday night, tying a franchise record and matching the MLB rookie mark.<\/p>\n

Peters and Munetaka Murakami<\/a> are the only rookies in club history to hit home runs in five consecutive games in the same season.<\/p>\n

Peters connected on a two-run drive in the fifth inning that put the White Sox ahead of the Texas Rangers<\/a> 6-2. The 26-year-old Canadian now has 12 homers on the season.<\/p>\n

The White Sox went on to win 10-4<\/a>. Peters finished with three hits and three RBIs.<\/p>\n

His streak matches a feat accomplished by a rookie 13 times before in the major leagues — including by teammate Murakami this year. Ron Kittle in 1983 was the only other White Sox rookie to do so, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.<\/p>\n

Eight times previously the White Sox have had a player hit homers in five straight.<\/p>\n
