While "Good Guys Wear Black," apparently their mascots wear green and yellow. On Sunday, the White Sox introduced their fans to the team's new mascot, Southpaw.

According to WhiteSox.com, the shaggy southsider:

has arrived at U.S. Cellular Field in search of FUNdamental baseball skills, fireworks and lots of run support. He enjoys playing baseball and having fun with all White Sox fans, especially the kids, and he loves to get out in the community to make new friends. Southpaw graduated from White Sox Academy University, where he did lots of homework on health and fitness and sharing his love of baseball with fans of all ages.
