It was revealed Monday that newly-hired White Sox manager Tony La Russa was arrested for DUI in the Phoenix area last February.
La Russa has a previous DUI conviction, dating back to 2007.
Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic wrote that White Sox management and ownership was aware of this incident before they hired him, but Sox owner Jerry Reinsdorf went ahead with the hire anyway:
Reinsdorf, hellbent on making up for his mistake of firing La Russa in 1986, went ahead anyway, turning the La Russa Express into a runaway train.
