A glitch in a graphic file that was emailed to some fans announcing the Chicago White Sox's hiring of Tony La Russa on Thursday contained a signature of AJ Hinch on a picture of La Russa.

The mistake was due to multiple variations of the graphic being prepared for various candidates, according to a team source.

Hinch, the former Houston Astros manager who was suspended for the 2020 season because of the team's sign-stealing scandal, was never interviewed.
