Forget about Robin Ventura’s face meeting Nolan Ryan’s fist.  This was a very good Major League baseball player who was a former first round pick and was a two-time All-Star, the first one being with Chicago.

You could say the Thornton Lee was a late bloomer in the Majors, as he did not get his first pitch in the bigs until he was 26 with Cleveland in 1933.  Lee was traded four years later to the pale hose in 1937, and after a pedestrian stay with the Tribe, he was set to break out in Chicago.

Paul Konerko was one of the most popular players in White Sox history, and when you hit as many Home Runs as he hid did, it was easy to see why.

13. Doc White

The first two seasons of Guy Harris "Doc" White's Major League career were with the Philadelphia Phillies of the National League.  He was an excellent Pitcher there, but he elected to take his talents to the Chicago White Sox in 1903 and the American League, where he would play for eleven years.
