Mark It Down: Sox Create T-Shirts Around Buehrle’s No-Hitter

White Sox Offering Several T-Shirts Around Mark Buehrle’s No-Hitter

By Rick Ellington, Staff Writer

White Sox P Mark Buehrle is scheduled to start Saturday against the Angels, his first start at U.S. Cellular Field since throwing a no-hitter there on April 18, and the team is attempting to capitalize on the accomplishment. Through their in-ballpark Majestic Custom T-shirt Shop, the White Sox have created five new T-shirts as a way to commemorate the 16th no-no in club history. Fans can buy shirts that include slogans like “I Was There: 4-18-07” and “You Can Put Nothing On The Board...Yes,” a take-off of announcer Hawk Harrelson’s distinctive home run call. The shirts are on sale exclusively at the ballpark and sell for $20 for men’s shirts, $22 for women’s styles and $18 for children sizes. White Sox Dir of PR Lou Hernandez said the team commissioned the shirts in-house partially to stave off potential unlicensed merchandise being sold outside the ballpark. Meanwhile, the cap Buehrle wore during the game and a baseball from the outing were sent to the Baseball HOF, where the items will be on display.
