A 1967 exhibition game between the White Sox and Minnesota Twins had attracted more than 51,000 spectators, and Selig was convinced the strong Milwaukee fan base would demonstrate the city would provide a good home for a new club.the Sox drew 539,478 fans to their remaining 72 home games. In just a handful of games, the Milwaukee crowds accounted for nearly one-third of the total attendance at White Sox games. In light of this success, Selig and Allyn agreed County Stadium would host Sox home games again the next season.Notable transactions Player stats Batting Note: G = Games played ; AB = At bats ; R = Runs scored ; H = Hits; 2B = Doubles; 3B = Triples; HR = Home runs; RBI = Runs batted in ; BB = Base on balls ; SO = Strikeouts; AVG = Batting average; SB = Stolen bases Player G AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB SO AVG SB Sandy Alomar , 2B,3B,SS133 363 41 92 8 2 0 12 20 42 .253 21 Luis Aparicio, SS 155 622 55 164 24 4 4 36 33 43 .264 17 Ken Berry, CF 153 504 49 127 21 2 7 32 25 64 .252 6 Buddy Booker, C 5 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 .000 0 Ken Boyer, 3B,1B 10 24 0 3 0 0 0 0 1 6 .125 0 Buddy Bradford , RF,CF,LF103 281 32 61 11 0 5 24 23 67 .217 8 Wayne Causey, 2B 59 100 8 18 2 0 0 7 14 7 .180 0 Tim Cullen, 2B 72 155 16 31 7 0 2 13 15 23 .200 0 Tommy Davis, LF,1B 132 456 30 122 5 3 8 50 16 48 .268 4 Ron Hansen, 3B,SS 40 87 7 20 3 0 1 4 11 12 .230 0 Woodie Held, OF,3B 40 54 5 9 1 0 0 2 5 14 .167 0 Gail Hopkins , 1B29 37 4 8 2 0 0 2 6 3 .216 0 Duane Josephson, C 128 434 35 107 16 6 6 45 18 52 .247 2 Dick Kenworthy , 3B58 122 2 27 2 0 0 2 5 21 .221 0 Carlos May , LF,RF17 67 4 12 1 0 0 1 3 15 .179 0 Jerry McNertney , C74 169 18 37 4 1 3 18 18 29 .219 0 Bill Melton , 3B34 109 5 29 8 0 2 16 10 32 .266 1 Tommy McCraw, 1B 136 477 51 112 16 12 9 44 36 58 .235 20 Rich Morales , SS,2B10 29 2 5 0 0 0 0 2 5 .172 0 Russ Snyder, OF 38 82 2 11 2 0 1 5 4 16 .134 0 Bill Voss , OF61 167 14 26 2 1 2 15 16 34 .156 5 Leon Wagner , RF,LF69 162 14 46 8 0 1 18 21 31 .284 2 Pete Ward, 3B,1B,LF,RF 125 399 43 86 15 0 15 50 76 85 .216 4 Walt Williams , RF,LF63 133 6 32 6 0 1 8 4 17 .241 0
