The Chicago White Sox were created in 1900. They have kept the same name from 1901-present. The White Sox have won three World Series. The years are 1906, 1917, and 2005. they have made it to the World Series six times. In 1919 they got the nickname the black sox because some of their players bet that they would lose and they lost the game on purpose. The player involve got banned from the game for life. In 1918 the white sox were really bad. They were bad because they lost most of their good players to World War I. The White Sox are now in the American League Central but they weren't always. From 1969-1993 the White Sox were in the American League West. The White Sox don't have the coolest uniforms in Major League Baseball. Their team colors are black, white, and silver. They do have a throwback jersey that does have some red on it.
Those of you who read my other blog post you know that my family went to Boston this summer. I said that we saw a Red Sox game. The day I went the Red Sox were playing the White Sox. It was a good game. The White Sox scored 4 runs in the first inning. However the Red Sox came back and made it a close game. When the White Sox play home game they play at U.S. Cellular Field. Since 1901 they have played at four different stadiums. Some of the retired numbers for the White Sox are 2, 3, 4, 9, 11, 14, 16, 19, 35, and 72.
