#6 - Jorge Orta

Most know Jorge Orta from the 1985 World Series. He helped the Royals gain momentum and win the Series from the Cardinals. But he started with the White Sox in 1972.

He ranked high in triples and average in the American League throughout the 70's. He made his first trip to the All-Star game as a White Sox in 1975. Jorge was a fixture at second base for the Sox. One of the mainstays in the Sox organization until his departure at the end of the 1979 season.

Jorge Orta is arguably the best player to wear #6 for the White Sox.
