The White Sox played at South Side Park, at 39th Street and Wentworth Avenue on Chicago's South Side, from 1901 until the team moved to Comiskey Park in 1910. The city's two clubs were fierce rivals, and their meetings drew big crowds, which a wide panoramic view like this one helps convey. The Cubs won the National League pennant in 1909, and the two Chicago teams had met in the 1906 World Series, when the White Sox upset the favored Cubs. The wide format also shows the ballpark layout and the crowd of that era.
