Chicago White Sox
The Chicago White Sox are a professional baseball team based in Chicago, Illinois. The White Sox are a member of the Central Division of Major League Baseball's American League. From to the present, the White Sox have played in U.S. Cellular Field (previously known as New Comiskey Park). The "White Sox" name originates from a prominent uniform feature which has since fallen into disuse. They are most prominently nicknamed "the South Siders", differentiating from the North Side dwelling Chicago Cubs, "the Pale Hose", and sometimes by the national media as "the ChiSox", a combination of "Chicago" and "Sox" (as opposed to the BoSox). Other nicknames include "the Go-Go Sox", in reference to the team's 1956 fight song, "the Good Guys", a reference to the team's one time motto "Good guys wear black", coined by Ken "Hawk" Harrelson, and "the Black Sox", the name attributed to the scandal-tainted team. Most fans refer to the team as simply "the Sox".
