In 1929, uniform numbers appeared on the back of baseball jerseys for the first time, thanks to the Indians and the Yankees. By 1937, numbers finally appeared across all uniforms, both home and away, across both major leagues. Since that time, 81 distinct numbers have been worn by members of the White Sox, while the Cubs boast 76.
Today, we continue our look at those players, picking our favorite, if not the best, player to wear each uniform number for both Chicago teams with #76. Once again, a single player has donned #76 while playing in Chicago, all the way back in 2000 for the Cubs.
Daniel Garibay’s entire major league career was for the 2000 Cubs. He went 2-8 with a 6.03 ERA in 30 games, including 8 starts.
