Vizquel to wear Aparicio's number

CHICAGO (AP) The Chicago White Sox are taking Hall of Famer Luis Aparicio's number 11 out of retirement for newly acquired 11-time Gold Glove winner Omar Vizquel.

A Venezuelan like Aparicio, Vizquel will wear the number as a tribute to his countryman.

"For me, it's like a huge celebration, trying to keep his name alive and trying to spread the word of Venezuelan shortstops," Vizquel said Monday during a conference call. "I think every kid now - the new generation of shortstops in Venezuela - has to know about Luis Aparicio and everything that he means to us in this game." (MORE)
