“The White Sox already have Mullet Night and Dog Day. Now add ‘Mayor Daley Night’ to the list,” the Sun-Times reports.
“The South Side club announced Tuesday that it will honor one of the team’s most prominent fans at the Aug. 3rd game against the New York Yankees.”
The Beachwood has learned the following events are planned:
* Free uninvestigated punches on Rush Street to first 10,000 fans.

1. From Spencer Maus:
* All union members working for the White Sox will get an 11 percent increase in salary, in spite of the attendance drop.
* Mayor Daley will sell all bleacher seats to the Milwaukee Brewers to cover the lost revenue from declining hot dog sales at the Cell. Starting next year, bleacher seats must be sold out before any other seats go on sale.
