The Chicago Whales were owned by Charles Weeghman a diner magnate. He had Weeghman park designed by Zachary Davis, the same architecht of Comiskey Park. The park is still in existence and is now know as Wrigley Field.

They were led by the Hall of Fame manager, Joe Tinker. Claude Hendrix was their ace pitcher and the team's slugging leaders were Dutch Zwilling, Art Wilson, and Fred Beck.
