Chicago Cubs vs. Chicago White Sox - 1959 TBTC

Chicago Cubs are at the Chicago White Sox today playing in 1959 Throwback jerseys.  The game is to honor the passing of two Chicago baseball legends from earlier in 2015.  Ernie Banks, Mr. Cub, passed away on January 23rd and Minnie Minoso on March 1st.  This is a "companion" game to the July 12th game at Wrigley Field in which 1958 Home/Away uniforms were worn by the corresponding teams.  

One of the best Sox uniforms from the past and certainly a better road jersey for the Cubs than their current options.  Have to give a completely biased "Go Cubs!"
