If anything, Pedro should've won it if Estaban didn't. It wasn't quite the robbery of Giambi over Big Frank but it was a snub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Narco finished 2nd to Roy Halladay in 2003. Yeah just remember about Halladay after I posted that. Hoyt maybe? Im not great at pre-1985 stuff.

Jack Parkman Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Just now, flavum said: Hoyt in 83. Yup. Wynn in '59, Hoyt in '83 and McDowell in '93 are the answers. Next, 2 White Sox hitters other than Frank Thomas have won AL MVP. Who did it, and in what year did they win AL MVP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From 1990-2008 the White Sox were 5th in MLB in winning percentage. Name the 4 teams in front of them. 2 are easy, the other two aren't.

soxfan49 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 In game 3 of the World Series, the Sox won 7-5. Blum's homer made it 6-5. Who had the 7th run driven in and how did it happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cardinals were a mediocre to bad team for most of the 90s, and that ended up dragging them down below the Sox. EDIT: You're actually right. I thought it was the Astros but the Cardinals were just mediocre enough to pull ahead of them.

He didn't win a Cy Young, since the award didn't start until 1956, but he definitely was the best pitcher in the MLB in 1908. Ed Walsh had the best record ever by a Sox pitcher. He was 40-15 with an ERA of 1.42. In fact, he holds the MLB record for best career ERA of 1.82. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcq Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 August 20, 1965: Interesting musical date in Sox-related history. The White Sox traveled to KC and shut down the A's 3-1 behind the masterful pitching of Gary Peters. The only run allowed was a solo shot off the bat of Ken Harrelson, but Gary drove in a run himself to make up for it. Back in Chicago, The Beatles were hosting a day-night DH at Comiskey Park. Before a mostly female wildly screaming combined throng of over 50,000 fans, the Fab Four played a matinee and evening set of their hits of the day. Not surprisingly, they gave up touring the following August having tired of the utter madness and not being able to hear themselves play. There was not a more popular, awe-inspiring band in our lifetimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today's trivia is... Who was the last White Sox player to hit 40 Home runs in a season. Dont cheat. One of my pet peeves as a Sox fan growing up in the '60's was what the White Sox record was for home runs in a season at the time: a puny 29!! I thought for sure that in 1963 that would be broken by 3B Pete Ward. He started the year by hitting 8 in the first 23 games. He ended the year with only 22. The record was finally broken by another 3B, Bill Melton who hit 33 in 1970. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
