The White Sox mourn the loss of legend Billy Pierce, who passed away this morning at the age of 88.
“Generations of White Sox fans lost one of their heroes today,” said Jerry Reinsdorf, chairman of the White Sox. “It was an absolute privilege to consider Billy a friend. He epitomized class, not just as a ballplayer on those great Go-Go White Sox teams of the 1950s, but as a gentleman and as a human being who devoted so much of his life to helping others.”
