Bill Nowlin
Bill Nowlin is a lifelong fan of the other Sox. He understood what it was like to wait decades and decades between World Series wins, and marveled at the Red Sox finally winning in 2004 and the White Sox winning the very next year, in 2005. A co-founder of Rounder Records and, more recently, Down the Road Records, he’s in more than one Hall of Fame – but they’re music-related ones. He has written more than 1,000 articles for SABR since the current century began.
