Outfielder Mark Payton grew up a White Sox fan in Orland Park but never wore his favorite jersey until Friday night when he was promoted from Triple-A Charlotte.
“My parents took me all the time as much as we could get out,” said Payton, 30, a St. Rita graduate who went on to star at the University of Texas. “My dad would get out of work, and we’d come watch the night games and a lot of memories here as a kid.”
