The White Stockings played their first regular season game as part of the American League, at South Side Park. They’d drop a 5-4 decision in 10 innings to the Milwaukee Brewers, who were managed by Connie Mack. The 1900 season isn’t officially recognized by baseball because the American League wasn’t yet considered a part of organized baseball, instead designated as a minor league. Even so, Chicago would win the first American League pennant, with a record of 82-53.

1987

At Comiskey Park, the White Sox snapped Milwaukee’s MLB record-tying 13-0 start to the season, winning 7-1.
