The story on this card
Topps' 1961 team card catches the White Sox a year removed from their pennant: 87-67 in 1960, third in the American League, ten games behind the Yankees. Al Lopez's club was murder at Comiskey Park, 51-26 at home, and took 17 of 22 from Boston, but lost the season series to both New York and Baltimore. Five future Hall of Famers dressed for it - Lopez, the Luis Aparicio-Nellie Fox double-play pair, Early Wynn atop the staff in starts and innings, and Minnie Minoso, back from Cleveland in a December trade and hitting .311 with 105 RBI. That club was also the first in the majors to put player names on the backs of its uniforms. Card 7 is a first-series team card.
