Before the question is asked about the 'patch' on Carlos Lee's
uniform:
The two Carlos Lee photos in the above post are from the actual
game on June 8, 2001 and were taken as he hit the GW GS.
The uniform patch on his right sleeve is the 'The American
League 100 Seasons Charter Member Patch' which was worn during
the 2001 season by the 4 charter member teams (White Sox, Red
Sox, Tigers & Indians) of the American League. The other 10 AL
teams wore a slighly different version of the patch that didn't
include the words 'charter member'.

So I guess "charter member" was defined as one of the original
franchises that hadn't moved to a different city... because I
would consider the Yanks, Twins, Orioles, and A's charter
franchises too.

June 9, 1987 - White Sox outfielder Kenny Williams hits a two
run home run in the 8th inning breaking up a no-hit bid by the
A’s Curt Young. It would be the only hit on the day for the Sox
who would lose 8 - 3.

June 9, 1997 - 90-year-old former White Sox pitcher Thornton Lee
dies in Tucson, Arizona. During his sixteen year MLB career, Lee
pitched 11 seasons for the White Sox.
Lee reached the major leagues in 1933 at age twenty-seven and
struggled for four years with Cleveland. His fortunes changed
when White Sox manager Jimmy Dykes saw something in the
lefthander and obtained him in a three-way deal. Relying on fine
control and a sinking fastball, he blossomed under the tutelage
of coach Muddy Ruel and became one of baseball's top lefthanders
from 1937 to 1941. But little offensive support left him on the
losing end of many close decisions.
In 1941 he had a great year, leading the league with 30 complete
games and a 2.37 ERA, and collecting a $2,500 bonus for winning
more than 20. Three years of misery followed; he broke his arm
and underwent two bone chip removals and a neck operation. He
bounced back in 1945, going 15-12, and was still pitching at age
forty-two, nine years before his son, pitcher Don Lee, broke in
with the Tigers. Ted Williams homered off both of them, the only
man to hit a HR off a father and son. (DB)

June 10, 1991 - The White Sox win a thrilling 13-inning 3 - 2
game at Arlington Stadium on a bang-bang game-ending play at the
plate. Two unearned runs in the top of the 13th inning gave the
White Sox a two run lead. Then in the bottom of the 13th, with
two outs, one run already in and the tying run at 2nd base,
White Sox first baseman Dan Pasqua boots an infield grounder but
second baseman Joey Cora quickly recovers and throws a strike to
catcher Matt Merullo who tags out the sliding Rangers pitch
runner Mario Diaz to end the game!

1944 - Pitcher Joe Nuxhall of the Cincinnati Reds is the

two hits before his manger takes him out.

1975 - The Yankees sponsor Army Day at their temporary home,
Shea Stadium (Yankee Stadium is being refurbished). In honor of
Army Day, the Yankees held a 21-gun salute with cannons situated
on the warning track facing the American flag behind the
centerfield fence. The cannons held blanks but the blasts were
still so powerful they knocked over three panels, set a fourth
on fire, and shattered the windows at the stadium’s Diamond
Club.

June 10, 1961 - With owner Bill Veeck in ill health, his group
sells the White Sox to Chicagoan Arthur Allyn, Jr.. Veeck only
owned the club for two and a half years the first time around.
On the same day of the sale, the White Sox make an eight player
deal that nets the team pitchers Ray Herbert, Don Larsen and
infielder Andy Carey from Kansas City. One week later the Sox
began a 12 game winning streak that saved the season. Herbert
would then go on to win twenty games in 1962.
