White Sox: Did you know Babe Ruth could have worn pale hose?
The White Sox are proudly one of the original teams in the American League and it has made its home on the Southside since 1901.
The deep history of the White Sox remains a part of the baseball conversation. And, a forgotten piece of that history has just come up for auction.
It appears that Charles Comiskey made one of the worst decisions a baseball owner could have ever made. He skipped out on the opportunity to add Babe Ruth to his roster.
You can see the evidence
The proof is in a scrapbook with letters and telegrams from Comiskey. The documents in the scrapbook are dated between 1909 and 1914. These documents are available for auction at Robert Edwards Auctions.
