Jose Abreu and Chris Sale set to appear at SoxFest 2016

The Chicago White Sox have announced that first baseman Jose Abreu and left-handed pitcher Chris Sale are scheduled to appear at the Hilton Chicago for SoxFest 2016, sponsored by Miller Lite, Comcast SportsNet, Beggars Pizza and WGN-TV.
 
In 2015, Abreu joined Albert Pujols (2001-02) as the only players to register 30-plus homers and 100-plus RBIs in their first two MLB seasons. Also during the 2015 season, Sale broke the White Sox single-season record for strikeouts (274), surpassing Hall of Famer Ed Walsh's 107-year-old mark. Sale became the only White Sox player to strike out 10-plus batters in four straight starts.
 
SoxFest 2016 - Friday, January 29 through Sunday, January 31, 2016 - offers fans the opportunity to meet their favorite White Sox players and franchise greats. Additional current and former White Sox players attending SoxFest will be announced at a later date.
 
This is the second year that the Hilton Chicago will host SoxFest, which is in its 24th year. Fans will have access to special autograph, photo and question-and-answer sessions, the popular SoxFest Garage Sale and special interactive activities throughout the weekend.  
 
Two-night SoxFest hotel packages include exclusive access to Friday night events and a SoxFest 2016 Chris Sale bobblehead. Hotel packages that are booked on whitesox.com are the only way to buy weekend passes. SoxFest hotel reservations at the Hilton Chicago are $304 for a two-night stay (price does not include applicable taxes, fees and costs for weekend passes).
