Home of the White Sox

The White Sox originally played at South Side park until 1910 when they moved into what is now their current home – Guaranteed Rate Field. The stadium was then known as Comiskey Park. When it was built, it was the last baseball stadium before the wave of “retro-classic” parks built in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Guaranteed Rate field has a capacity of 40,615 for White Sox games.

History of the White Sox

While the White Sox franchise has a long history, its record of championships is not all that long. In nearly 120 years of existence, the White Sox have won just five division titles. They won two as a member of the AL West in 1983 and 1993. Chicago has won three AL Central Division championships (2000, 2005, and 2008) since MLB adopted the newest format.

The White Sox have won six MLB league championship series (AL pennants): 1901, 1906, 1917, 1919, 1959, 2005. The franchise has won three World Series titles first winning in 1906, again in 1917, and most recently in 2005.

Nellie Fox was one of the White Sox’ first big stars. He spent the bulk of his MLB career in Chicago (1950-1963). He was an AL All-star in 12 of those seasons and won the league’s Most Valuable Player award in 1959. Fox, a second baseman, also captured three Gold Gloves (1957, 1959, 1960). He finished his career with 2,663 hits and a .288 career batting average. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1997.

Chicago had the seventh overall pick in the 1989 MLB draft and used it on slugger Frank Thomas, who would play 16 seasons with the franchise from 1990 to 2005. Thomas, also a Hall of Famer, was a five-time All-Star and was twice the American League MVP. He is the MLB player ever to have seven consecutive seasons (1991-97) with at least a .300 batting average, 100 RBIs, 100 runs, 100 walks, and 20 home runs.

Harold Baines made his debut with the White Sox in 1980. He would play 14 seasons in Chicago and then serve 12 more a coach in the organization. Baines was a six-time All-Star choice and won a Silver Slugger award in 1989. He was a member of the White Sox World Series championship team in 2005 and finished his career with 384 home runs. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2019.
