CHICAGO, Feb. 9 (UPI) -- New Chicago White Sox shortstop Omar Vizquel will wear the formerly retired number 11 of Sox great Luis Aparicio, Vizquel says.
Vizquel told The Chicago Tribune that Aparicio, the only Venezuelan in the Baseball Hall of Fame, gave him permission to wear his No. 11 after manager Ozzie Guillen declined to let Vizquel wear his own No. 13.
