The "Go-Go White Sox" reached the World Series in 1959. Go back further, to 1917, for the last South Side champs.
Why is it the Sox's fault that the umps were bad? Anyhow the Sox destroyed them by more than enough runs where those calls didn't matter anyhow.
Holy Cow! This one's for all the crybaby FReeple and sore losers out there.
Go Sox! You'll take the Big One in 4!
OZZIE! :D
Then they would realize how good they have it.
Live around Hershey, PA now. Fishing lakes all around, hunting fields all around, little traffic, good wages, good looking women. Am I missing something from living in the big burgs? I will answer that myself, yes, Major League Sports.
I miss living in a big city.
Early Wynn. The Big Chief. May he rest in peace.
By the way, when my kids see pictures like this, to them it looks like Matthew Brady stuff. I have to tell them, "Hey, its not ancient history. I was there!"
Thank you for your conspiracy posts, they're very amusing.
Here's another asterisk for you:
The last time a team won four straight postseason games with pitchers pitching complete games was the 1928 NY Yankees.
(The pitchers were Waite Hoyt, George Pipgrass, Tom Zachary and Waite Hoyt)
Your not missing anything, you have a TV dont ya? :D
Love,
Congrats, Sox! We'll see you in a couple days. Save us an Italian Beef -- and we'll save you a couple pounds of BBQ!
yep,
Unlike the baseball conspiracy troll who showed up to make us chuckle, your post's content definitely qualifies as an asterisk in baseball History.
Thanks for The FACTS, Just The Facts.... lol
Hey, I now also hope it is the Astros, although it would be sweet to beat up on LaRussa, considering the Chicago connection.
But thanks for baeting up on the cards none the less. See you Saturday. Ummm, Don't forget your bats. lol
You know something cool?
I was a Sox fan as a kid, became a Twins fan (raised in Minnesota) and recently became an Astros fan (a couple games at Minute Maid will do that to you!). I used to love the Sox back at old ComiskPark with those hideous old uniforms. Those were the days...
Regardless, it's great to see the Cards, Yankees and Red Sox out of the playoffs. Talk about an Axis of Evil...
Yeah, I've been a White Sox fan my whole life.
I was also fortunate enough to attend the last game at Comiskey Park.
I live in California now, but Remain loyal to the White Sox and Bears.
Never really rooted for the Cubs, but I don't really root against them either.
South Side is a Rockin Tonight.
OMG!!! WOO HOO!!! I will be at the ballpark on Saturday! I'm a season ticket holder and we have been celebrating all night here! GO SOX!!!
