The White Sox are still adding to their already loaded promotional schedule.

Thrown on the calendar are three limited-edition bobbleheads, which include the following: 

  • Munetaka Murakami Bobblehead, commemorating the Japanese slugger’s first MLB home run with his signature “I have power” phrase.
    • Sunday, July 26 vs. Houston (15,000 fans),
  • ‘Shoeless’ Joe Jackson Bobblehead, presented by the Village of Bedford Park.
    • Sunday, August 9 vs. Cleveland (15,000 fans)
  • OzzieGuillén and Chuck Garfien Bobblehead, presented by CHSN.
    • Sunday, July 12 vs. the Athletics (10,000 fans)

“We’ve had several unique opportunities to build on an already strong 2026 giveaway lineup,” said Brooks Boyer, White Sox chief revenue and marketing officer. “From celebrating storylines like Ozzie’s jersey retirement and Murakami’s immediate on-field impact, to honoring iconic figures in franchise history like ‘Shoeless’ Joe Jackson, these collectibles connect across generations of White Sox fans. It’s all about listening to our fans and delivering experiences that make every visit to Rate Field even more memorable.”

Other promotions on top of the bobbleheads include:

  • Ozzie Guillén Replica Jersey, presented by Verve, a credit union, for the 2005 World Series-winning Manager’s uniform No. 13 retirement on Saturday, August 8 vs. Cleveland (15,000 fans)
  • White Sox Kid-Designed Hat on Childhood Cancer Awareness Day, presented by CIBC, on Sunday, September 6 vs. Minnesota (10,000 fans)
  • Gaelic Storm Postgame Concert on Halfway to St. Patrick’s Day, presented by Miller Lite,on Saturday, September 19 vs. Detroit (30-minute set)

The White Sox Kid-Designed Hat, coming in September, was created by four-year-old Melanie of Alsip, Illinois, who is currently undergoing a second round of high-dose chemotherapy for medulloblastoma. Melanie, who dances to the “Macarena” before every radiation session, incorporated her love of flowers into the design, along with personal touches like her handprints and a scribbled autograph on the bill.

Also in September, the halfway to St. Patrick’s Day celebration will now be highlighted by the Celtic band Gaelic Storm, who will be taking the field for a postgame concert. The White Sox have already announced an Irish Quarter Zip giveaway for the speciality night, making it one of the season’s most sought-after items.

The club’s also adding the Murakami and Shoeless Joe Jackson Bobbleheads and the Guillén Replica Jersey to the list of items available as guaranteed promotions. The team notes that fans who purchase a guaranteed giveaway voucher at whitesox.com/guaranteedpromo can pick up their item at the designated entrance inside ChiSox Bar & Grill and receive a $5 coupon toward any food or beverage purchase at the restaurant.
