Thank You for Shopping at Sox Mart

Let's see, Kansas City gets Scott Podsednik, Brian Anderson, Josh Fields and Chris Getz. Maybe Kansas City should change their name to the Kansas City White Sox. If I was a K.C. fan, I'd like these additions.

White (Sox) Christmas

"The White Sox Fan's Little Book of Wisdom" makes the perfect Christmas gift. You can buy it for a friend as a gift, or for yourself if your relatives insist on giving you stuff you don't want. Or you could buy it for a Cubs fan as the first step in a 12-step shock therapy program. (The other 11 steps involve waterboarding and high voltage.)

Only in this little book can you learn the answers to these burning questions:

Who had the first White Sox major league at bat and what happened?

Which White Sox team produced the most runs per game of any team in the Dead Ball era?

Which White Sox pitcher tossed five consecutive shutouts?

What was the winner's share for winning the 1906 World Series?

How did one White Sox pitcher get the win without throwing a pitch?

Which ChiSox pitcher led the league in complete games for three straight seasons?

Who did the White Sox pick over Johnny Bench in the 1965 draft?

What did the eight banned Black Sox do for a living after being kicked out of baseball?

Which Sox fielder got hit in the face by a pop-up?

Which ChiSox outfielder took eight years to get a hit?

Which Sox player hit a home run in an old-timers game when he was 75 years old?

Which Sox catcher threw out 18 would-be base stealers in a row?
