(Special) Lee Fohl declares that if the While Sox win a pennant this year it will be through unfair tactics. He charges every White Sox pitcher with disfig uring balls. He has a collection of balls used by White Sox . pitchers, which, he says all have the tell-tale black spot, where some substance has been used to shine them.
