<p>CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago White Sox paid tribute to late closer Bobby Jenks by wearing "45" patches on their uniforms on Thursday night.</p>
<p>The White Sox debuted Jenks' uniform number patches against the Cleveland Guardians and will wear them for the remainder of the season.</p>
<p>A World Series champion and two-time All-Star, Jenks died Friday in Sintra, Portugal, where he was being treated for adenocarcinoma, a form of stomach cancer. He was 44.</p>
<p>Jenks helped the White Sox win the 2005 World Series, saving four games in six appearances during the postseason. He was on the mound for the final out in Game 4 at Houston, giving Chicago its first championship since 1917. Jenks made All-Star teams while saving 41 games in 2006 and 40 in 2007.</p>
<p>Members of the 2005 team are gathering in Chicago this weekend to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the title run. The White Sox are scheduled to unveil a statue of former ace Mark Buehrle on Friday.</p>
