White Sox to don throwback caps for Crosstown Classic series vs. Cubs

This weekend marks the second of two Crosstown Classic series in 2025 between the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox, with the South Siders preparing to sport a retro look at home for the games.

In celebration of Hall of Fame Induction Weekend, several MLB teams will be wearing throwback hats in honor of notable players and teams for each franchise.

While each team will be honoring a team of their past this weekend, some teams, such as the Boston Red Sox and Chicago Cubs, will not be wearing different hats, as those clubs are honoring recent World Series champions.

As for the White Sox, however, fans will be treated to a truly retro look, harkening back to their days of success in the 1950’s, which included a run to the World Series in 1959.

The all-black hat features a diagonal white “SOX” logo accented with a red trim, which was worn by the team from 1951 to 1963.

While the Cubs will still be wearing their classic all-blue hats, the franchise is honoring the 2016 World Series-winning team as part of Hall of Fame Induction Weekend.

The blue hat with the red “C” logo has been worn by the club since 1959.

A full look at the hats that will be on display by MLB teams this weekend can be found here.
