“The Very Hungry Caterpillar” came with us everywhere: To the pediatrician’s office, in case it took awhile. To restaurants, to ease the wait for our food. On road trips to see our Ohio family.

“The White Sox identity — black and white, gothic script and pinstripes — is so strong that it has resonated beyond the game of baseball,” said Wil Green, a Nike senior creative director, in a statement. “Their uniforms speak to the strength and hardworking nature of the Southside of Chicago — without saying a word. We wanted to harness the Southside’s personality for the Nike MLB City Connect Series and introduce its attitude to newer, younger fans.”
In the video, calves are stomped in the head, kicked, dragged by the tail and ears, hit in the face with plastic milk bottles, thrown out of the back of trucks and into pens, and generally brutalized. Five workers in the video were identified as participating in the alleged abuse. Four employees were fired and a truck driver who worked for a third-party vendor was banned from the farm.
