  • In Memoriam: a 2002 Conversation with Billy Pierce
    In memoriam: A 2002 conversation with Billy Pierce By Mark Liptak Posted Monday, August 3, 2015 (Originally published July 31, 2002) (Editor’s Note: White Sox pitching legend and all around good man Billy Pierce passed away on Friday, July 31st. With his services this week, the Chicago Baseball Muse- um thought it would be appropriate to republish Mark Liptak’s full in- terview with him from July 2002. Liptak was a friend of Pierce’s and wrote his obituary story for the Chicago Baseball Museum last week. In this interview Billy talked about how he actually got started playing baseball, his years in the major leagues and his life after baseball. Billy also remembered many great moments and great Pierce (center left) mobbed by his Giant teammates after players that he faced on the dia- final out in the National League playoff - October 3, mond.) 1962. Photo Courtesy of Associated Press. Billy Pierce...just saying the name evokes memories of another time in Chicago. On the South Side it was a time when baseball dominated the spring and summer months particularly because of the success of the White Sox. With no video games or ca- ble / satellite television, kids played the game from morning till night. It was a time of the ‘neighborhoods’ all around the South Side. You could go to the neighborhood corner store and get a package of baseball cards for a nickel. Candy really was a penny. You had the neighborhood church, the neighborhood bar and the neighborhood V.F.W. where usually on Friday or Saturday nights you could watch a B grade science-fiction movie (remember “The Fly” or “The Incredible Shrinking Man”?) for a quarter or 50 cents.
