White Sox, Cubs to honor Minoso, Banks during Crosstown Cup series

When the White Sox and Cubs renew the Crosstown Cup Series this summer, both teams will honor franchise legends who passed away during the offseason.

On Sunday, the Cubs will honor "Mr. Cub" Ernie Banks by having each player wear a No. 14 in a 1958 retro jersey. The White Sox will also wear jerseys from that era for the game.

“Chicago baseball fans suffered two incredible losses this winter when legends Ernie Banks and Minnie Minoso passed away,” said Cubs President of Business Operations Crane Kenney. “We’re honored to partner with the White Sox and recognize two of the greatest baseball players to ever represent this city during our upcoming Crosstown Cup Series.
