Comiskey Park History:

The original Comiskey Park, built in 1910 at 35th Street and Shields Avenue, was dubbed the “baseball palace of the world” for its modern steel and concrete construction.

On July 1, 1910, the White Sox played their first game in the fireproof park. It was made entirely of steel and concrete and seated 32,000, which included 7,000 in twenty-five-cent bleachers.

On July 5, 1947, Larry Doby of the Cleveland Indians became the first African American to play in the American League, debuting during a doubleheader at Comiskey. Other notable events held in this Park included the first Major League All-Star game on July 6, 1933. On June 22, 1937, Joe Louis defeated James Braddock at Comiskey to become heavyweight boxing champion of the world. The Chicago Cardinals of the National Football League played there from 1922 to 1925 and from 1929 to 1959. Comiskey also hosted church festivals, musical extravaganzas, picnics, and auto polo events. The ballpark closed in September of 1990.
