The 1919 season was a dark one for the Chicago White Sox. Now known as the Black Sox Scandal, eight members were banned from playing on the Chicago White Sox baseball team for intentionally loosing games. It is thought that the plan was set up by local gamblers, and may even have had gangster ties.

The 1959 season brought the Chicago White Sox a change of luck. The team passed on to new ownership, which brought more organization to the team. It was also the first time in 40 years that the team once again won a pennant. This set off a party in Chicago, and the fire chief set off the air raid sirens. This being the height of the cold war, it frightened many people until they realized what was going on.
