General Info

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 1919 team. Most fans refer to the team as simply "the Sox".
