May 22, 1977 - A Sunday afternoon crowd of 31,030 saw Richie
Zisk become only the second White Sox player in franchise
history to hit a home run into the center field bleachers at
Comiskey Park. He joined Dick Allen (1972) as the only White Sox
players to ever accomplish this feat. Richie Zisk’s blast off
Tigers' starting pitcher Dave Rozema in the 8th inning came in a
losing effort as the White Sox lost 14 - 3.

Those 1968 Rookie sets you posted I well remember, I think that
was the first set I collected every card, and that is buying
packs only and trading (and probably tossing) cards.

That 1968 club was quite the disappointment. After coming so
close in 1967, they traded Tommie Agee for Tommy Davis in the
off season to add some pop at the plate. Then they started the
season 0-10 and never recovered, ending 17 straight seasons of
winning records.
Agee would of course win a WS with the Mets in 1969.

Since this is our last game against the Los Angeles Dodgers this
season, I have to post the most famous 1959 World Series photo:
[center]
HTML http://90feetofperfection.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/alsmith1959worldseries.jpg[/center]
In Game Two of the 1959 World Series at Comiskey Park, Al Smith
retreated to the left field wall in pursuit of a long drive hit
by Charlie Neal of the Los Angeles Dodgers. As Smith watched the
ball sail into the stands for a home run, a fan accidentally
knocked over a cup of beer that was resting on top of the fence,
dousing Smith's head and face. Smith estimated that he signed
photographs depicting that moment at least 200,000 times. The
photograph was taken by AP Chicago Tribune staff photographer
John Raymond Gora.

May 23, 1991 - The 'Little Bulldog' Greg Hibbard pitched a
complete game as the White Sox laid a beating on Andy Hawkins
and the Oakland A's 11 -1 at the Oakland Coliseum. Tim Raines
was the main spark for the offense as he went 4 for 4 with a
triple, three runs scored, a RBI, 2 walks and two stolen bases.
Lance Johnson and Carlton Fisk each had three hits for the
White Sox and Frank Thomas had two hits but more importantly
five RBI in the game.

May 24, 1929 - In one of the greatest pitching performances in
the history of MLB, White Sox starter Ted Lyons throws all 21
innings in a heartbreaking 6 - 5 loss to the Tigers at Comiskey
Park. He allowed 24 hits in the 21 innings. Only two other
hurlers had ever matched Lyons mark and no one has ever bettered
it. The Tigers & White Sox also completed this 11 run, 42 hit,
21 inning game in only 3 hours and 31 minutes.
