About Chicago White Sox vs. Kansas City Royals
The rivalry between the Chicago White Sox and the Kansas City Royals can be attributed to a series of events. The main event that fueled this rivalry was the 2015 Royals-White Sox brawl at the US Cellular Field. It all started when Yordano Ventura fielded a ball from Adam Eaton in the bottom of the seventh and apparently mouthed some remarks as Eaton jogged down to first base. Ventura threw the ball to first base and Adam Eaton was called out. However, the two players jogged towards each other. Soon the benches emptied and a brawl began. Several players, including Lorenzo Cain and Jeff Samardzija were ejected and Ventura was also later fined by the MLB for creating a conflict. The rivalry between the Chicago White Sox and the Kansas City Royals has been mainly about this particular brawl. Let’s take a look at some of the other memorable moments from for each of these two teams.
Memorable Moments – Chicago White Sox vs. Kansas City Royals
The Disco Demolition Riot - In 1979, the Disco Demolition riots took place at Chicago’s Comiskey Park. The plan was put together by White Sox and a local radio station as a promotional venture. Tickets for the game against the Tigers were sold for $0.98 if you brought a disco record for them to blow up in between games. This astounding publicity gimmick actually worked as the attendance that night was nearly four times the average. In a slight turn of events, the burning of the records ended up sparking a massive riot. ,/p>
The Pine Tar Incident, 1983 - In the July of 1983, the Kansas City Royals were in the midst of a game against the New York Yankees. George Brett of the Royals hit a two-run home run off Goose Gossage with two outs and gave the Royals a lead by 5-4 in the top of the ninth. But this didn’t quite sit well with the Yankees’ skipper, Billy Martin. He requested the umpires to inspect Brett’s bat. After examination, the umpires ruled that the amount of pine tar on Brett’s bat was indeed more than the amount allowed by the rule. This ruling nullified Brett’s home run and called him out. With Brett being the third out in the ninth inning and with the home team in the lead, the Yankees ended up winning the game. The Royals soon protested, and their protest was supported by AL president, Lee MacPhall. The game was ordered to be restarted from the point of Brett’s home run and ended with the Royals winning 5-4.
