The
Chicago White Sox are a Major League Baseball
team that plays on the South Side of Chicago,
Illinois. The club is in the Central Division
of the American League. They are managed
by former team shortstop Ozzie Guillén.
The White Sox are one of two major league
teams based in Chicago, the other being
the Chicago Cubs of the National League.
Both clubs are charter members of their
respective leagues.
The White Sox were a frequent contender
during the early 20th century, winning
5 of the first 19 league pennants; but
the team's fortunes dropped precipitously
in the aftermath of the 1919 "Black
Sox" scandal. After winning only
one league championship in the years spanning
1920 to 2004, the team ended decades (and
generations) of frustration in 2005 when
it won its first World Series Championship
since 1917. Buy
