Chicago White Sox Sued for Sexual Discrimination

A woman who once worked for the Chicago White Sox has filed a sexual discrimination lawsuit against the team and Major League Baseball alleging she was passed over for promotions because of her gender. Deborah Theobald, 33, alleges in the lawsuit that in spite of stellar performance throughout her eight-year career with White Sox, she was routinely passed over for "upper management positions." In 2004, when Theobald applied for the job of manager of partnerships, the White Sox opted to promote a "less qualified male," according to the complaint, which was filed in Cook County Circuit Court.
