Ozzie Guillen brought to tears as White Sox will retire his No. 13

The Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show celebrates a historic moment in White Sox history as Ozzie Guillen is honored with the retirement of his No. 13 jersey on August 8th. The emotional announcement, orchestrated by Scott Bitsednik during a surprise segment on CHSN, brought Guillen to tears in front of his wife, Ebis, and longtime colleague Chuck Garfine. The hosts reflect on Guillen’s legendary career—both as a World Series-winning manager and a beloved, authentic broadcaster—highlighting how this gesture from the White Sox serves as a meaningful tribute, especially given that he was not rehired as manager despite his strong desire. The episode also covers the team’s recent momentum, including a sweep of the AL champion Toronto Blue Jays—the first in 31 years—and the emergence of young players like Murakami and Montgomery. The hosts share lighthearted banter about fantasy picks and player performance, underscoring the joy and unpredictability of baseball. The moment is framed not just as a personal victory for Guillen, but as a symbolic rebirth for the franchise and its fans.
