  • Eight Decades Later, Robertson Has Perfect Partner in White Sox History
    Eight decades later, Robertson has perfect partner in White Sox history By Paul Ladewski Posted on Monday, July 27th For 87 years, Charlie Robertson had a rather lonely existence in local baseball annals. In 1922, he had become the first and last White Sox pitcher to author a perfect game, a feat achieved so long ago that his name had withered into relative obscurity since then. Only after Mark Buehrle pitched a similar gem last week did Robertson finally have a partner and he became relevant again. So who was this person forever linked with Buehrle in White Sox history? And what is his story? Charles Culbertson Robertson was born on Jan. 31, 1896, in Dexter, Tex., a speck on the map about 100 miles north of Dallas. In 1919, after three years at Austin College in nearby Sherman, Tex. he signed with the White Sox at 23 years of age. The 6-foot, 175-pound right-hander made his major league debut that season, and he spent the next two campaigns in the minor leagues. Prior to the 1922 campaign, White Sox pitcher Dickey Kerr walked out on the team in a salary dispute. One year after Eddie Cicotte and Lefty Williams were suspended for their parts in the Black Sox scandal, the absence of Kerr left the staff with one proven starter. When his team got off to a 4-6 start, Manager Kid Gleason inserted Robertson into the rotation even though he had only 10 innings of major league experience. It was move made out of desperation more than anything else.
