When 14 White Sox Were (Wrongfully?) Ejected
The date was July 19, 1946. The White Sox was playing the Red Sox in Chicago. Before it was over 14 Chicago players were ejected for supposedly heckling the home plate umpire. This fact is reported in a "Today in History" entry from CP's Brodacst News.
Now almost 60 years later, The New York Times (July 6) ran a lengthy article asking "Was the [erpetrator a ventriloquits in teh stands or a rude coach in the dugout?". Folks, on the scene, now in the eighties and nineties weigh in on the version of what transpired.
Makes for interesting reading.
By chance the White Sox happen to be hosting the Red Sox this weekend in Chicago.
