The Chicago White Sox compete in professional baseball's Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member of the American League (AL) Central Division. The club, first called the Chicago White Stockings, but soon shorten their name to the Chicago White Sox, and became one of the American League's eight charter franchises in 1901. The team had originated as the Sioux City Cornhuskers in the Western Minor League in 1888. They are one of two major league clubs in Chicago, Illinois, the other being the Chicago Cubs, who are members of the National League (NL) Central division. Their home stadiums have been the South Side Park (III) (1900-1910), Comiskey Park (1910-1990), Milwaukee County Stadium (1968-1969) and Guaranteed Rate Field (1991-present), all in the Chicago area.
The Sox major league titles include three World Series titles (1906, 1917 and 2005), six American League Pennants (1901, 1906, 1917, 1919, 1959 and 2005), three Central Division titles (2000, 2005 and 2008) and two West Division titles (1983 and 1993).
It should be noted that in the early years baseball teams used pennants rather than flags (hence the practice of calling championships winning the pennant) and there were a host of unofficial manufacturer's variants of these and later fan flags marketed for their fans. They included flags, banners, and pennants too numerous to all be shown here.

These retro fan flags feature the White Sox logo used between 1976 and 1990. Both use different background treatments in the red, white and blue colors of that time. Today the team colors used are black, silver, and white.

This horizontal tri-color fan flag places a throwback 1976 logo in black on the white center stripe combined with a upper red and lower black stripe. Not sure what the inspiration was for it, but very German-looking.

The white Sox have had a number of colorful nicknames in their history, such as "The Sox, The Chi Sox, The South Siders", and even "The Pale Hose". They still wear their traditional pinstriped uniforms for home games, that are reflected here.

For those baseball fans who own boats and want to display their team loyalty afloat, these flags are available for them. The flags take the form of either a broad pennant or a square boat flag with either a cap or team logo near the hoist. Each uses the individual team's colors in their designs.
Note: Because of the small size of these nautical broad pennants. usually about a foot tall (approximately 30.48 centimeters), they have also gained popularity as "golf cart" flags. It should also be noted that a broad pennant, or any other flag shape, is only called a "burgee" if it designates an organized boating club.
