September 28th, 2021

CHICAGO – The Chicago White Sox invite fans to wear black throughout all October at Guaranteed Rate Field, showing their support for the team during the postseason and joining in the “Change the Game October” fun.

“One hit, pitch, play – any moment – can literally ‘Change the Game’ on the field, and we know the energy of our fans can be a game changer. That’s why we are calling on White Sox fans everywhere to show their Sox pride by wearing black throughout the postseason,” said Brooks Boyer, White Sox chief revenue and marketing officer. “Just as we saw with the ‘Blackout game’ in 2008, 40,000 White Sox fans standing strong in our team’s color is a sight to behold. We’re ready to show the 26 guys in our dugout that Chicago is for them.”

As part of “Change the Game October,” the White Sox will distribute 40,000 black “Change the Game” rally towels, presented by Beggars Pizza and Xfinity, at the first American League Division Series (ALDS) game at Guaranteed Rate Field.

Fans can pick up the latest Sox gear, including official American League Central Champions caps, T-Shirts and other merchandise at the Chicago Sports Depot, located near Gate 5 at the ballpark. With extended hours, the Chicago Sports Depot is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

A limited amount of single-game tickets for possible 2021 ALDS and American League Championship Series (ALCS) games at Guaranteed Rate Field go on sale to the general public at 2 p.m. CT on Wednesday, September 29, on whitesox.com only.

Additional events and activities to support the White Sox leading up to the postseason will be announced in the coming days. Fans can visit whitesox.com/postseason for the latest information.
