A new book showcases old Comiskey Park with hundreds of photos

 

The Chicago White Sox are looking to move from their home stadium in Bridgeport and set up shop closer to downtown. It comes 33 years after the team tore down Old Comiskey Park and erected what is now known as Guaranteed Rate Field in its place. A new book, “Last Comiskey,” provides dozens of photos from the last year of that beloved stadium at 35th and Shields. Ken Smoller is the book’s author. He joins Mike Puente this morning.
