Many of you may remember this, I didn't. In 1999, almost all MLB teams hosted a Turn Ahead the Clock Night. According to Baseball Reference, the White Sox played in one of these games. What it was was each team designed a jersey for the year 2021, most of which with no sleeves, strange logo placement, among other things. You can read the Uni Watch to learn more.

 

I wanted to see what the Sox wore that day, but they are just about the only team that I can't find a photo of the jersey they wore that day. So here's the challenge -- can anyone find it? Does anyone remember us wearing them? I'm curious as to what the Sox's rendition of these strange, fun uniforms were.

I think I do remember wearing them, but I also don't remember what they looked like. I'm not even sure if our colors were black for them. This is odd because I was thinking about this a few weeks ago, I remember SportsCenter showing what Babe Ruth would've looked like in the Yankees Turn Ahead The Clock.

According to that, we wore ours against the Indians on September 10th.

I remember they were AWEFUL

There was a recent thread on wsi about this. http://www.whitesoxinteractive.com/vbullet...ad.php?t=102426

Lotsa pics. Sorry for being lame, but I'm on my blackberry.

Internet Search Rookies

 

 

Just changed hands for $254

Those aren't that bad.

The huge logo could be sweet if done right

I think I remember the Pirates or Astros just being absolutely terrible.

Ha, those were a lot sharper than I remembered them.

What were the pants that went with them? Anything flashy?

I googled "turn ahead the clock night" and The Rockies and Indians had decent looking unis.

Check out Griff on the first TATC Night, in 1998 which was supposed to be a one game deal.

 

 

I was at that Sox game. They gave out silver Sox hats to the first however many fans. Silver! I can't believe I lost that thing, it ruled. The Sox got destroyed by the Indians in the game. Those future uniforms are not bad.

Also, what is Thome up to here?
