Default The Hitless Wonders - White Sox 1906

Posted By: Joe D.

thanks joe - your postcard is pretty cool as well (thanks for posting).


Its pretty remarkable that a team that couldn't hit the ball (White Sox) won the pennant and went on to beat the winningest team in the league (Cubs) for the World Series Championship.

And the hitless wonders faced a team that had Mordecai Brown, Tinker, Evers, Chance.

I don't recognize anyone in the White Sox postcard except for Comisky. It must have been a David and Goliath match up... and the city of Chicago must have been going nuts for it.
