  • Restless Minoso Is Hopeful Final Wish Will Be Granted
    Restless Minoso Is Hopeful Final Wish Will Be Granted By Paul Ladewski Normally, it doesn't take much to get a word out of Minnie Minoso, the former White Sox great. He hasn't been himself lately, though. He has tossed and turned for weeks. He admits to a few cowboy movies in the wee hours. On the way to U.S. Cellular field on Thursday, when a public forum was held to raise awareness for his Hall of Fame bid, not even his wife Sharon could get a peep out of him. “I said, 'Hey, Superstar, are you ready for this?'” she said. “He didn't have much to say. He has been that way for awhile now.” Then again, when you're 85 years old – or is it 88? – and your last wish on Earth is in the hands of the 16 members of the Golden Age election committee, it's not easy to put so many thoughts into words. The vote will take place on Dec. 5 at the winter meetings in Dallas. “To be in the Hall of Fame is my last wish in this life,” Minoso told the Chicago Baseball Museum. “If I am lucky to get there, I don't know if I will be dead or alive when they have the ceremony. I might have a heart attack when they tell me. This is something that I have wanted for a long time.” That Minoso has been under the radar this long perplexes many of those who played in the 1950s, often referred to as the Golden Era of baseball.

  • The Passing of Minnie Minoso and Remembrances by His Sox Teammates
    The Passing of Minnie Minoso and Remembrances by His Sox Teammates By Mark Liptak Posted Monday, March 2, 2015 From the time he arrived to make his White Sox debut on May 1, 1951 until his passing early Sunday morning March 1, 2015, Saturnino Orestes Armas (Arrieta) “Minnie” Minoso loved Chicago, the White Sox and baseball. Minoso, the first Latin player to appear for the White Sox, reportedly was 90 years old although many feel he was actually older when he passed away in his car. Minoso had gone out Saturday night for a friend's birthday party when he appar- ently fell ill and pulled over in the Lakeview neigh- borhood, according to police and family. He was found early Sunday morning unresponsive. Minoso’s story is one of overcoming hardship and prejudice first in Cuba where he was born and raised and then in his day-to-day dealings with life in the 1950’s in America. He changed people’s atti- tudes by always being courteous and showing a smile regardless of the circumstances. Minnie played 17 games with the Indians in 1949 Minoso was one of the original "Go-Go" boys. Photo credit Associated Press. and 1951 when he was acquired by the Sox in a three way deal also involving the Athletics. The deal was driven by Sox G.M. Frank “Trader” Lane upon the recommendation of manager Paul Richards. Richards had first seen Minoso play in San Diego in the Pacific Coast League and immediately pushed for his acquisition. When all was said and done, Phila- delphia sent Lou Brissie to Cleveland; Cleveland sent Sam Zoldak and Ray Murray to Philadelphia; the Athletics sent Paul Lehner to the White Sox, the White Sox sent Gus Zernial and Dave Philley to Philadelphia and the Indians sent Minoso to the South Side of Chicago.

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.

  • 59 Pennant Clincher Remains Golden for Fans, Players
    Anniversary of ‘59 pennant-clincher is golden for White Sox fans, players By Paul Ladewski Posted on Monday, September the 21st Even all these years later, long-time White Sox fans can still tell you where they were on Tuesday, Sept. 22, 1959, the night that the White Sox beat the Cleveland Indians to capture their first American League pennant in 40 years. “We can’t help but remember it,” former outfielder Jim Rivera said of his career highlight almost 50 years to the day later. “That was the only thing a lot of us ever did in baseball.” “No, it doesn’t seem like 50 years ago,” said Billy Pierce, who helped anchor the pitching staff that season. “I remember it well. How can you forget it? We tried to win a pennant for a long time, and we finally won one.” The pennant-winner would be the defining moment for the White Sox in the 1950’s decade, the so-called Go-Go era in which they won 90-or-more games four times. “It’s very, very surprising, but when I talk to people, they seem to remember 1959 better than 2005 -- and we didn’t win the World Series and that team did, you know?” Pierce said. “The 1950s were a very exciting time for baseball as a whole. Nostalgia-wise, they seem to remember the players an awful lot. Not long after the 4-2 victory, civil defense sirens wailed in the night to signal the news but set off a near panic instead. Because the country was in the throes of the Cold War at the time, some of the non-baseball population braced for an attack and ran for cover.

  • Sox's 'The Bandit'
    Sox’s ‘The Bandit’ robbed foes of homers at old Comiskey By Mark Liptak Posted Tuesday, February 4th, 2014 Ken Berry’s nickname was “The Bandit” be- cause of his ability to rob opponents of sure home runs by vaulting himself onto or even over the center field fence in old Comiskey Park, and taking away blasts that seemed des- tined for the back of the bullpen. Later in life, Berry would become a noted mi- nor-league manager, working with such promising youngsters as John Elway, Robin Ventura, Alex Fernandez and Frank Thomas. And if a major league career spanning 1962 through 1975 wasn’t enough, along with an All-Star appearance and two Gold Gloves, Berry also worked in the movies, as fate pointed his way towards a technical advisor position in the Black Sox film Eight Men Out. Throw in two of the greatest pennant races in Ken Berry using the body English for which White Sox history and you have quite a story he's best remembered: chasing down a Sox to tell, which he did from his home in Kansas. opponent's long drive. Mark Liptak: By the time you were in col- lege at what is now Wichita State University, the White Sox were very interested in you. Tell us about how you were scouted. And wasn’t Ted Lyons one of the Sox people who watched you? Ken Berry: “Ted had come up from Louisiana to watch me play. It was really the only time that I was aware that someone was interested in me for baseball.

  • Ray Herbert Recalls Surprise 20-Win Sox Season in ‘62
    Ray Herbert recalls surprise 20-win Sox season in ‘62 By Mark Liptak Posted Wednesday, October 30th, 2013 Winning 20 games is a feat in any era. It’s especially tough in the 21st century with pitchers working on four days’ rest and getting 35 or fewer starts. But it wasn’t a given in the mid-20th cen- tury when a bigger strike zone, no DH and four-man rotations increased the odds of a 20-win season for a capable starter. Some of the best-known Sox pitchers of modern times have not won 20 while working on the South Side – Mark Buehrle, Tommy John, Joel Horlen. Instead, some surprising names reached that pitching bench- mark like Ray Herbert, Esteban Loaiza and Jim Kaat. Herbert connects to the great Sox pitching staff of the 1960s. “Excellent” is the word that best describes a group that lead the American League in ERA Ray Herbert warming up at Comiskey Park during in four of five seasons between 1963 his surprise 20-win season in 1962 . Photo credit: and 1967, that produced 11 All-Stars www.sfmsports.net. from the pitching staff, that had two 20- game winners, three 19- game winners, a “Fireman of the Year”, and four league leaders in ERA during the decade. The names roll off the tongue…Gary Peters, Joe Horlen, Juan Pizarro, Tommy John, Hoyt Wilhelm, Eddie Fisher and Wilbur Wood. But there were also pitchers rather un- heralded, rather forgotten, who also contributed to an organization that averaged 96 wins a year from 1963 to 1965, and 92 wins between 1963 through 1967.
