With the 2026 Major League Baseball season soon underway, a new mural honoring great achievements in Chicago White Sox baseball history debuted Thursday, March 12th, in the CTA pedway area of Midway International Airport. Presented by the White Sox and the CDA, “South Side Pride” is a vinyl artwork that spans more than 13,600 square feet. Adorning the walls of the pedway area, the mural consists of memorable on-field moments in the team’s history, which are complemented by iconic ballpark imagery and historic Chicago landmarks. Created by artist Zissou Tasseff-Elenkoff, the exhibit is also a tribute to the city’s grit, creativity and deep baseball roots on the South Side, where the White Sox have played since 1900. Opening Day of the 2026 MLB season is scheduled for Thursday, March 26, with both the White Sox and the Chicago Cubs playing their first games of the year.
