Taking a decade-by-decade approach to the Chicago White Sox baseball tradition, this collection brings together over 40 stories from the most outstanding voices of the team. The spirit of White Sox baseball is not captured by just one phrase, one season, or one particular game; instead, the players and managers who made the magic happen over the decades blend their experiences to capture the true essence of their beloved team. Sox fans will relish the intimate stories told by the figures they have come to cherish. In What It Means to Be a White Sox, a veritable dugout full of South Side stars - including Luis Aparicio, Ozzie Guillen, Billy Pierce, Mark Buehrle, A.J. Pierzynski, Minnie Minoso, and Frank Thomas recall their favorite memories from their Sox playing days and what it meant to them to play for the team as well as insight into their experiences while being on the team. Bob Vorwald is the executive producer of WGN Sports, overseeing nearly 200 Chicago sports telecasts each year. He has worked in Chicago television for the past three decades, and is the author of Cubs Forever as well as the writer and producer of the documentary by the same name. He lives in Chicago.  Ozzie Guillén is a Major League Baseball manager of the Chicago White Sox, and a former shortstop for the same team. Under his leadership, the team won the American League pennant and went on to win the World Series in 2005; he is the first Latino-born manager to do so. He lives in Chicago.
