Card of the Week: 1974 Topps Jorge Orta

[Ed. Note: Yes, it’s another new feature here at South Side Sox, Card of the Week, which intends to provide a fun glimpse into a career of a former White Sox player. Kicking things off is multifaceted athlete Jorge Orta.]

Jorge Orta was a mainstay in the Chicago White Sox infield from 1972-79, playing in 990 games on the South Side and totaling 11.6 WAR. He was the only position player to bridge the success of the Dick Allen White Sox and that of the South Side Hit Men.
