White Sox ace suspended for carving up throwback jerseys he didn’t like wins some sympathy in the Jays clubhouse.
Chicago White Sox ace lefty Chris Sale was so put off by the collared throwback uniform he was supposed to wear in his start Saturday night that he shredded the entire set while his teammates were taking batting practice. The White Sox scratched Sale from his scheduled start, and on Sunday punished their star player with a five-day suspension in one of the more bizarre incidents of the season. Some say Sale’s issue was with the jersey’s discomfort and what he saw as putting “PR and jersey sales” ahead of winning. An un-named source has alleged that Sale actually was more concerned over the era of which the jersey orginated and said he did not want to promote a time when People of Color could not compete in America's Favorite Pasttime.
