Teams Minnie Minoso played with:
1949, 1951-- Cleveland Indians
1951-1959-- Chicago White Sox
1958-1959-- Cleveland Indians
1960-1961-- Chicago White Sox
1962-- St. Louis Cardinals
1963-- Washington Senators
1964, 1976 and 1980-- Chicago White Sox
He is the only major league baseball player to have played in five different decades and was always greatly disappointed that he was not on the 1959 American League Champion Chicago White Sox. Like Ernie banks, he never had the opportunity to play in a World Series.
After retirement, he became a White Sox ambassador.
I was able to meet him on two occasions: once at the Old Comiskey Park and I saw him speaking once.
He'll Be Missed.
