It was AWESOME for the player to toss y'all loyal fans the ball in well deserved appreciation! The way he laughed like a thrilled kid choked me up! PRICELESS moments for your boys only Chi Town baseball trip! Fun to watch male bonding at it's finest! The seats y'all had can NOT be beat! Surely you made it on tape!! You all will be a part of history! Well worth enduring the harsh elements....or so i hope! This makes me want to do this with my girls!
America is Baseball and apple pie, my Dad and "our" uncle George (from Buffalo New York) promoted games in which the Legendary Satchel Leroy Paige pitched cousin Jim liked the SoX, Uncle George was a baseball team manager in Iowa gotta love the best. Super video thanks Adam.
That was so much fun. Well, I have to say, even though Baseball is not my thing, I will be rooting for Tampa from now on because they have three of the coolest fans. I did miss the cow bell though. 😍
This was a nice surprise. I always love seeing you and Jay back together. The boys are back in town. I can't wait to watch his video. I'm sorry the Rays lost but, you seemed to have a great time. You should have a Chicago dog while your there. I like you keep people guessing whether you'll do a video or not tomorrow. I think you should, you can mix it up some.
Trivia - White Sox Groundskeeper Roger Bossard is called the “Sodfather” and is one of the most influential groundskeepers in MLB. He patented a drainage system that us used in many MLB stadiums and other stadiums throughout the world.
And he's still out there every game grooming the dirt or spraying the hose. He took over for his father in the 80s who was the grounds keeper since 1940. I remember when they took the dirt across the street to the "new" park.
I think that was Awesome of you and Tampa Jay to invite Cowbell Max!! Looks like he was having the time of his life Kudos to you guys....Im enjoying these Baseball Vids 👍
Sooooo excited for all of your baseball adventures this season! We’ve been to many games there before watching our Detroit Tigers play the Sox, but haven’t been back since we moved to Florida, so I thoroughly enjoyed today’s vlog! How about that Brett Phillips diving catch in right field!?!?👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Can’t wait to watch the rest of the vlogs from Chicago! Especially the Wrigley Field ones!!!!!
It will always be Comiskey in our hearts! ❤My family has a brick in front of the stadium. It would have been so amazing if it made it onto the Daily Woo!
If you are going today, before you enter the stadium the visiting team's batting cages can be seen from the outside if you go to where the bike racks are on the first base side.
You wouldn't want to go to YANKEE STADIUM IN NEW YORK wearing Boston red Sox stuff, you might not make it out of the stadium alive !! I was born 4 miles from the stadium in 1954. November first game was in 1960 with my dad. THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA....
Adam, Love these baseball videos. You and your friends have such a great time. Glad to see you all having so much fun! It is fun to see where you go and what you share. Thankyou👍
Awesome video and seats. It's good to see the baseball crew together again and at an away game. For some reason most of the stadiums up here are named after banks. Like Comerica Park which is Tiger Stadium. To me it will always be Tiger Stadium. I hope you are staying warm. Even here in Michigan the weather is flip flopping. Enjoy the rest of your trip and stay safe and warm.
Was Comerica Park called Tiger Stadium at first? I ran the bases at the original Tiger Stadium when only the grandstand behind the bases still stood. Nice to see they kept the flagpole in the new park it's become.
I don’t think Jackie Robinson played there because he spent his career in the National League. He of course played many times at Wrigley Field. But there was no interleague play in those years except for the World Series and All-Star Games. The Dodgers did play the White Sox in the 1959 World Series, but Robinson‘s last year was 1956. The first All-Star game meanwhile was at Comiskey Park in 1933, the brainchild of Chicago Tribune sports editor Arch Ward, as part of the 1933 World’s Fair. That was of course before Robinson broke the color line in 1947, and the All-Star Game didn’t return to Comiskey Park until the 50th anniversary game in 1983.
The All-Star game was played at Comiskey in 1950 and Robinson batted fourth that game, so he did play there. He also played there as a member of the Kansas City Monarchs of the Negro League in 1945. Comiskey was the home park of the Chicago American Giants
Love all the baseball video :) we are Red's fans in my family thanks to my gramdpa ❤fun fact : He played for the Cardinals for a short time in the 40's.
I'm only a couple minutes in, but thought I would mention that the structure behind you, by old home plate, with the ramps across the street was built with a curve that mocks the original Comiskey Park. Not many people know that. It was the first big ballpark of its kind, nicknamed the baseball palace of the world. And it was. Oh and uhh, we don't call it Guaranteed Rate Field. It's just "Sox Park". When I first heard the new name I honest to God thought it was a joke.
@@wmst5065 I get that it's a money thing and almost every team is doing it now but I grew up with both Comiskey park's, and then once I finally was comfortable hearing US Cellular Field it changed to this, which is such an awkward name.
Jackie Robinson to the best of my knowledge never played in Comiskey Park. The Dodgers are in the National League and the White Sox in the American League. Inter-League play didn't start until several decades after Robinson died.
Robinson played at Comiskey while in the Negro Leagues with the Kansas City Monarchs. It was the home park of the Chicago American Giants. He also played there during the 1950 All-Star game
HEY ATW... I'VE BEEN LISTENING CLOSE TO YOUR COLOR COMMENTARY'S and I'm praying The Rays are too. You are sounding amazing. I wanted to hear you say "Got a little souvenir" when Cowbell Kid got that ball! Sorry about the "Chicago Dog"! I guess it means the way Chicagoans fix up their dogs! Glad to see TAMPA JAY made it to the game!!
2 down 1 to go!😬😁 Quick bit of info, the field is called guaranteed rate, the stadium is still Comiskey Park. Just another way for ownership to get advertising dollars.
You need to get out to see a Tampa game here in Seattle on a nice Seattle summer day. Mariners have a really really nice stadium here. I’m originally from Orlando but live outside of Seattle now. You’d enjoy seeing a game here for sure!
A little technicality as Jackie Robinson played for the National League Dodgers while the White Sox are in the American League. In those days, the leagues didn’t play each other except for the World Series. So I am going out on limb here to say Jackie Robinson probably never played in Comiskey Park.

The relatively new minor league team in Rosemont (adjacent to O'Hare ORD) is called The Chicago Dogs. Every Tuesday is free all you can eat hotdogs with paid admission. Best deal in sports (you can get a $10 ticket) and free parking.
As a fellow onion lover, I am patiently waiting for your next indulgence to be captured on camera! My favorite are A&W onion rings. 💖 Any others have favorites?
Excellent seats! Glad you guys had a good time. Honestly, I expected to see each of you happily tearin' into a delectable mountain o' toppings Chicago dog. I swear I could hear a sad trombone over the image of that pitiful thing you were served. Have these stadiums no shame? :D
A few years back ATW took a break from filming. Right before that he went to a taping of The Price Is Right. I just recently came back to his videos and never did find out if he made it up to bidders row. Can anyone let me know what ended up happening?
Should've walk down the road at 35stredhots for some good Chicago dog and fries awesome seats Adam glad you had a good time and their pinwheels Go Whitesox 😁
Fun fact about the Sears Tower. Now known officially as the Willis Tower, it is currently the second tallest building by roof height in the Western Hemisphere. The tallest is Central Park Tower in NYC. Sears Tower is 1,451 ft to the roof while Central Park Tower is 1,550 ft. The official tallest is One World Trade Center but it stands only 1,368 ft to the roof. The antenna on the roof that also doubles as a spire brings the height to 1,776 ft. The antennas on top of the Sears Tower bring it’s height to 1,729 ft. But by ROOF height, Central Park and Sears Tower are the two tallest.
I'm a huge White Sox Fan, but I'll forgive you for wearing another teams crap ..lol. I do respect other fans, I promise. Took my girls to their 1st white Sox game last year. They are 9 & 11. So much fun.
Another food item ONLY available in Chicago that MUST be had, is an Italian Beef sandwich. You will love it. Try Roma's, also at Milwaukee and Elston, on Elston (6000 block). Enjoy Chicagoland! My old address, 6071 N Elston Ave, right there.
