Part 1/4:
Reinsdorf Acknowledges Franchise's Outdated Approach Amid Historic Losing Season
Owning Up to Failure, But Lacking Apology
In the wake of the Chicago White Sox's historically abysmal 2024 season, team owner Jerry Reinsdorf issued a statement addressing the team's on-field performance. While Reinsdorf acknowledged the "failure" and "embarrassment" of the 121-loss campaign, his statement lacked a clear apology to the fan base.
Reinsdorf took responsibility as the "leader of this organization," stating there were "no excuses" for the team's historic futility. However, he stopped short of directly apologizing, instead thanking fans for their "continuing support" and saying they "deserve better."
