1960: The White Sox added the name to their uniforms

On this day in 1960, the Chicago White Sox introduced new uniforms with last names over the number.   

It took a while for the idea to catch on.   There are still teams today, such as the Red Sox and Yankees, who do not have names on their home uniforms.
