Kelly Paris was originally acquired by the White Sox following the 1983 season when he was purchased from the Reds. However, he was then released during spring training. He was resigned following the 1987 season and made it into 14 games with the big league club, the last of his major league career, before shattering his elbow in a collision with Detroit’s Tom Brookens.
There was one surprising quirk to Paris’ time in Chicago. Prior to 1988, Paris had 168 career at bats and totaled 0 home runs and 8 RBI. In 44 at bats with the White Sox before his injury in 1988, Paris blasted 3 home runs and drove in 6 runs.
