Photos: A toast to Harry Caray — and a curse-breaking ceremony with a 1919 Black Sox baseball

A ceremony was held during the 27th annual toast to the late broadcaster Harry Caray on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, in hopes of breaking a purported Chicago White Sox “curse.” The event, held at Harry Caray’s Tavern on Navy Pier, involved a baseball used in the 1919 World Series known for the infamous Black Sox scandal. The ball was discovered in the Tribune Tower as it was being redeveloped and was removed from the building in 2022, and since then the White Sox have been on a dismal stretch. The ball is being returned to the Tribune Tower with the intent of reversing the team’s fortunes.
