Predominantly batting in the leadoff spot, Ray Durham was with the Chicago White Sox for the first eight seasons of his MLB career.

Durham's first half was his best half as he would have his two All-Star appearances with Chicago.  The Second Baseman had five straight .270 seasons (1996-00), all of which would see him have at least 10 Home Runs.  In that timeframe, Durham would have 25 Stolen Bases or more, and he played for Chicago until 2002 when he was traded to Oakland.  With the ChiSox, Durham had 106 Home Runs, 1,246 Hits, and a .278 Batting Average.
