Official Chicago White Sox GU

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

Agreed! They definitely went for a nice penny. I had interest in the Beckham jersey. For those of you that are interested, here is some info I received from Sox charity auctions and self research.

- Some players wore both knit and cool base the 13 games. Two sets may be available. Looks like knit was worn April-June and CB June-til last home game Sunday Sept 30th.

-Sunday April 15th game was Jackie Robinson Day. Some players wore #42

-Jerseys worn the last home game Sept 30th are unwashed and authenticated that day under MLB database as game used. Not sure about the other set the player wore it its unwashed. Again some players had two sets.

-Some jerseys, if not all are tagged 1972 ## S1 or S2

If anybody else can add to that please do!

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

Anybody win the 1972 throwback batting helmets that were on MLB.com Auctions? Both the Pierzynski and the Youkilis went for $900+. They were awesome but quite expensive.

Nooo!

Nooo!

Yeah, I couldn't believe they went for so much; I was hoping you would be able to pick one up. But $900+ seems absolutely crazy for a non-HOFer helmet, even with MLB authentication.

Ron, That A.J. Collection is Sweet! I didn't know you had some of his equipment as well. Great Display!

Cant wait to get my hands on one. Your Right, these prices are crazy. At least the money spent is going to a good cause.

The '72 DeAza with all the pics makes it even more sick

Nice Pick Ups!

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

This 4 me personally was the real prize of the last Sox MLB Auction a 2012 A.J. Pierzynski 72 Throwback batting helmet.

Being as A.J. is 1 of my All-Time Favorite Sox's & this could very well have been his last year with them, not to mention it being a career year for him I had 2 add this piece to my A.J. Gear.

Congrats on that AJ helmet; I was wondering if a forum member won it. It is a pretty awesome piece, so I am glad that a true fan snagged it. Those '72 throwbacks go for quite a pretty penny. Enjoy it!

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

I have to say this style is one of my All-Time Favorites as it takes me back to when I first started watching the Sox's & by judging prices realized in this Auction its a favorite style of many others also.

Yeah - I'm also a fan of that jersey style.

Dropped by the Cell today to pick-up my 2012 Alejandro De Aza Sunday Home Games worn 1972 Throwback Majestic Coolbase Jersey from MLB Auctions.

I love that jersey as well. Are you going after a Pierzynski, while you're at it?

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

I'll be looking 4 sure though the price could be frightening.

Good luck! Those are awesome shirts. For as much as I love them, I have to ask: Why the red color scheme? Someone who is not familiar with uniforms might think that they are Red Sox, not White Sox jerseys...any idea the reason for the color scheme?

Stoped by the Cell Again this Time 2 Pick-Up this MLB Auction Won Harold Baines Set #1 Knit version of the 1972 Throwbacks Jersey's worn on Sunday Home Games in 2012.

Joe
It looks like you were correct in your assumptions that Set #1 were the Knit Jersey's and Set #2 Were the Coolbase Jersey's 4 the 72 Throwbacks.

Awesome. So the 1972 throwbacks were made both in knit and cool base?

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

I remember I use to hate when it was his turn in the rotation to take the mound. I use to chalk it up as a loss lol.. Coop must of did something after the all star break, it seemed like all his arm angles were untouchable. If Im not mistaken he won almost 20 straight going into the '06 season. There were some no decisions in between though.

Any Collectors go 2 the Rosemont Convention Center Today?

2005 WS Champs Jose Contreras, Scott Podsednik, & Cliff Politte were in attendence.

Had Jose sign his 2005 Vest, 2008 Black Alternate and his 1929 Road Throwback Jersey worn in 2009.

Funny how it seems like no one remembers when Contreras was the best pitcher in baseball from the 2nd half of 05 through the 1st half of 06 and the horse of the pitching staff through the 05 Playoffs.

Mark Buehrle gets a lot of South Side love, and rightfully so, but he was never as good as Contreras was in that year time frame. He was basically unhittable. Great collection of jerseys. I have Contreras' home white jersey from 2006 with the World Series champions patch.

Re: Official Chicago White Sox GU

While some players like Konerko wear Knit jerseys almost exclusively.

There's a Konerko 1972 jersey that's on MLB.com Auctions:
