In memoriam: The White Sox we lost in 2018
Teammates forever: Three White Sox in the 1959 team photo were lost to us in 2018, including Sam Esposito (second row, second from right); Rudy Árias (fourth row, third from left); and big Joe Stanka (over Árias’ right shoulder, fifth row, third from left).It’s the time of year where, as we look ahead with hopeful eyes to our 2109 Chicago White Sox, we look back at those South Siders we lost in 2018. Included among them are a Hit Man, a Japanese League legend, and a NCAA title-winning basketball coach.
Please, feel free to use the comments to honor any White Sox close to you who we lost in 2018.
