After the Black Sox
The Chicago White Sox in Transition, 1920-1926
The Black Sox Scandal
The Black Sox Scandal, which saw eight players on a seemingly invincible Chicago team conspire to throw the 1919 World Series, remains the worst blow baseball ever suffered. Yet little has been written about what happened to the White Sox afterward, when half the club's talent was banished from the game--a shattering loss that no other team before or since has experienced.
The Aftermath
This book is the first to focus on the scandal's aftermath, exploring the impact on the Chicago franchise, its players, its fans and its owner. The author explains how eight players went crooked, how the Clean Sox reacted to the game-fixing by their colleagues and how, over the course of a handful of seasons, the franchise overhauled its roster and moved forward.
