"Veeck was known for his promotions, stunts and off-the-wall ideas which ranged from installing a shower in the center field bleachers at Comiskey Park to broadcaster Harry Caray leading the crowd in singing “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” in the seventh inning — to the infamous “Disco Demolition” night." - 2024
"And at least then, Reinsdorf and Eddie Einhorn could at least scapegoat the age and condition of then 75-year-old Comiskey Park as cause for a new ballpark." - 2023
"Arriving by helicopter and dressed as Martians, the quartet drops onto the Comiskey Park infield and shakes hands with second baseman Nellie Fox and shortstop Luis Aparicio, giving them toy ray guns as the public announcer informs the 40,000 plus in attendance that the “extraterrestrials” have arrived to help the somewhat short keystone double play combo in their struggle with giant earthlings." - 2022
"Per his SABR biography: Three days after graduating from high school, Ellsworth unexpectedly found himself hurling from the major-league mound at Comiskey Park in Chicago." - 2020
"From her perch at Comiskey Park starting 50 years ago this summer, Faust introduced walk-up music and injected irreverent reactions to in-game shenanigans." - 2016
"The biggest crowd in six years flocked to Comiskey Park, and the Sunday spectators were not only there to see the hometown White Sox play in a doubleheader." - 2015
"26 in Chicago's Comiskey Park, with five innings of workmanlike pitching: one hit and six strikeouts." - 2014
"CHICAGO — When Adam LaRoche was a kid, he used to hang with his father at old Comiskey Park when Dave was a coach with the Chicago White Sox."
