Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a comprehensive team schedule for the 1956 Chicago White Sox with dates for every game played, opponents faced, a final score, and a cumulative record for the 1956 season.
"What people don't understand is, one day off for Cal Ripken would not recharge his batteries. One day would not do it. He's not playing 2,130 games in a row. Cal is ONLY playing 162 games a year." - Frank Robinson in The Sporting News (September 11, 1995)
