Rank:<\/strong>\u00a0197<\/p>\n

Position:<\/strong> P<\/p>\n

Years With White Sox:<\/strong>\u00a01988-1989<\/p>\n

Jerry Reuss signed with the White Sox toward the end of spring training in 1988, joining the rotation just 2 victories shy of 200 for his career. \u00a0He had to wait until May for the achievement, a 3-0 victory over the Orioles.<\/p>\n

He finished the season with 13 wins, tops on the team that finished with a 71-90 record. \u00a0He also had the second lowest ERA among the team’s starters, coming in at 3.44 in 29 starts.<\/p>\n

In 1989, Reuss, 39, along with 41 year old catcher Carlton Fisk, made history by\u00a0becoming the oldest battery ever to start on opening day, surpassing pitcher Johnny Niggeling and catcher Rick Ferrell of the 1944 Washington Senators while beating the Angels 9-2. \u00a0That may have been the high point of the season, though, as his ERA ballooned up to 5.06 in 23 games. \u00a0With the White Sox again on their way to a 90 loss season, they traded Reuss to the Brewers in exchange for Brian Drahman.<\/p>\n

Ruess returned to the White Sox for spring training in 1990, but did not make the team and was released.<\/p>\n
