Chicago White Sox

They acquired left hander Dave Hamilton and minor league prospect Chet Lemon from the Oakland A's for Stan Bahnsen and Skip Pitlock, and acquired Jefferson from the Orioles for Tony Muser. With the Chisox, Jefferson was moved back into the starting rotation, compiling a 5–9 record with a 5.10 ERA. He split the 1976 between starts and the bullpen before he was lost to the Toronto Blue Jays in the 1976 Major League Baseball expansion draft.

and his crotch turned blue as a blood blister,
and Godfather death, as it is written,
put a finger on his back
for the big blackout,
