He was unconventional; he blasted punk music in the clubhouse, rode his bicycle to and from Comiskey Park, was a fan favorite, and was known as his teammates as “Rad.” He told a sportswriter: ” I love the five minutes I’m actually in the game. Those five minutes are why I come to the ballpark and put up with the writers, the dress code, the team meetings, the authority of the dugout, the major corporation that is baseball.” In 1990, he posted a record of 6–1 with four saves in his rookie season.
In 1991, Radinsky enjoyed his finest year with the White Sox, going 5–5 with 8 saves and a 2.02 ERA. He was 10th in the league with 67 appearances. He held batters to a .116 batting average with runners in scoring position.
Radinsky pitched in minor leagues from 1986 to 1989 and later seasons. The year 1989 was his best, as he recorded 31 saves with an 1.75 ERA, and averaged 5.7 hits and 12.1 strikeouts for every 9 innings pitched. He was named as a Midwest League All Star.
