The White Sox are planning a special event named "Bill Veeck Night" during a game against the Cleveland Guardians. This event will recognize the contributions of former team owner Bill Veeck, who had two ownership stints from 1959-61 and 1975-81. Veeck is remembered for his innovative promotions, including the first exploding scoreboard, and for signing pioneering players like Larry Doby and Satchel Paige, breaking the AL color barrier. He was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1991.
The White Sox will celebrate late owner and Hall of Fame inductee Bill Veeck with unique game day events during Saturday's 6:10 p.m. CT game against the Cleveland Guardians at Rate Field, coined "Bill Veeck Night."
