    Konerko: Mr. White Sox for the new millennium By Dr. David J. Fletcher, CBM President Posted Monday, September 30th, 2013 Although it was a disaster for both the Cubs and Sox, the end of Chicago baseball season is always sad. The transition to October is a sorrowful moment even this year. Both teams finished in last place with a combined record of 129- 195.

PK was pulled from the game, walking off from his first-base position, in a class move by Manager Robin Ventura. He left after one out in the 2nd inning to allow the Chicago faithful one more time to cheer for PK to shouts of “Paulie…Paulie…Paulie.” As is his custom, PK did not soak up the limelight and exited his as fast as possible to get to the dugout, acknowledging the fans with a brief curtain call and hugs/high fives from his teammates in the dugout.
