Franchise royalty: Chicago White Sox all-time postseason lineup

Chicago White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski leads the franchise's all-time postseason starting lineup, delivering clutch performances in the 2005 World Series run. The ultimate centerpiece, Paul Konerko, was named ALCS MVP and slugged a franchise-record seven postseason homers, including the iconic grand slam in Game 2 of the World Series.

Tadahito Iguchi's three-run homer in Game 2 of the ALDS helped flip a 4-0 deficit into a 5-4 lead, securing the White Sox's path to the ALCS. Veteran presence at shortstop came from the late Luis Aparicio, who defined defense and table-setting for the Go-Go White Sox era. Joe Crede's late-inning heroics and consistent performance at third base rounded out the lineup, cementing the 2005 group as the Chicago White Sox's premier postseason team.
