00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:07.759
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome to the Stupid Distrument. I'm your host,

2
00:00:07.879 --> 00:00:10.679
<v Speaker 1>Cap Pound. Today we're talking about the Chicago White Sox.

3
00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:14.199
<v Speaker 1>Chicago White Sox have one of the most fascinating histories

4
00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:16.800
<v Speaker 1>in baseball. They are founded in nineteen oh one as

5
00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:20.359
<v Speaker 1>one of the American League's original eight franchises. The White

6
00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:24.519
<v Speaker 1>Sox were established by owner Charles Kamiski after he moved

7
00:00:24.559 --> 00:00:27.719
<v Speaker 1>the Saint Paul Saints to Chicago. The team won the

8
00:00:27.839 --> 00:00:31.640
<v Speaker 1>nineteen o six World Series despite earning the nickname the

9
00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:36.479
<v Speaker 1>Hitless Wonders for their lack of offense. Unfortunately, they are

10
00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:40.679
<v Speaker 1>also remembered for the infamous nineteen to nineteen Black Sox scandal,

11
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:44.759
<v Speaker 1>when eight players were accused of intentionally throwing the World Series.

12
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.479
<v Speaker 1>The scandal changed baseball forever and led to the appointment

13
00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:53.200
<v Speaker 1>of the game's first commissioner. Sometimes history remembers your biggest

14
00:00:53.240 --> 00:00:57.399
<v Speaker 1>mistake just as much as your biggest victory. This has

15
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:05.159
<v Speaker 1>been the Stupid histruy minute, and I'm kept Pound. This
