​On this day 66 years ago, Al Worthington bolted the White Sox. | Chicago White Sox 1901At South Side Park, the first-place White Sox treated 19,800 fans — the largest crowd the American League (in its first year as a major league) sees all season — to a thriller. In the bottom of the ninth, down 3-2 to the Boston Americans, catcher Billy Sullivan and pinch-hitter Nixey Callahan singled, and Callahan stole second to put ducks on the pond. Facing Cy Young, who was aiming to complete the game and take home his 29th win on the season, center fielder Billy Hoy singled in both runs, for a walk-off win.1960You have to respect the man’s beliefs, at least. Veteran pitcher Al Worthington was acquired from the Red Sox on August 29 to help with the stretch run of the season, but on this day he left the White Sox, stating that he couldn’t play for a team that cheated.Worthington, a devoutly religious person, had heard rumors the Sox were stealing signs via a flashing light in the scoreboard relaying the upcoming pitch to hitters, and when manager Al Lopez wouldn’t confirm or deny the charge Worthington left. He remained in the White Sox organization, playing in the minor leagues the next two years before the Reds selected him in the Rule 5 draft in November 1962.From 1964-69 Worthington became one of the best relief pitchers in the American League, saving 102 games for the Minnesota Twins and winning 42 more.In his short stint with the White So,x he appeared in four games with a 1-1 record and a 3.38 ERA.  1962White Sox pitcher and future Hall-of-Famer Early Wynn won his 299th career game, beating Washington, 6-3. Wynn threw a complete game, scattering nine hits with three strikeouts. It would be his last win of the the season, leaving him a win short of the 300-win milestone.He would get a spring training invite from Chicago for 1963, but was cut. But Cleveland, the team Wynn had pitched for earlier in his career, picked him up and he got his coveted 300th win on July 13, winning 7-4 at Kansas City.That 300th was Wynn’s last win in the major leagues.1984 With 30,511 fans showing up to see the White Sox lose, 6-5, to the Angels, the club pushed past two million fans for the second straight year. In 1983, the White Sox drew 2,132,821 fans, marking this as the first time in Chicago city history a club had back-to-back years of more than two million in attendance.This game pushed the White Sox to 2,024,093 in a season that would (barely) top the previous season, ending at 2,136,988 through the turnstiles.1993Breakout hurler Jason Bere tied a 73-year-old White Sox rookie record, with 13 strikeouts over eight innings of an 8-1 win against Boston. Bere tied righthander Frank Lange, who had a fairly brief run with the White Sox in the early 1910s.Also on this day, pitcher Doug Lindsey arrived in Chicago from the Phillies as the player to be named later for Donn Pall (sent to Philly on September 1).2022White Sox third baseman Yoán Moncada d
