White Sox Scandal Exposes Reds' Role
White Sox Vs Reds'Black Sox vs. Reds: The Fix That Wasn’t—And the Scandal That Was'
October 1919 – Cincinnati, Ohio
The air at Redland Field was thick with tension—not just from the World Series between the Chicago White Sox and the Cincinnati Reds, but from something darker. Rumors swirled like cigar smoke in a backroom poker game: the greatest team in baseball might be throwing the Series.
But what if the real scandal wasn’t the White Sox at all?
The Setup: A Perfect Storm of Greed
The White Sox were heavy favorites. With stars like 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson and Eddie Cicotte, they should’ve crushed the Reds. But whispers spread fast: gamblers had gotten to key players. Cicotte, the ace, hit the first batter—a prearranged signal that the fix was on. The Sox played sloppy, making bizarre errors. The Reds took Game 1, then Game 2.
Yet, not everyone was in on it.
The Wild Card: The Reds Knew
Reds pitcher Dutch Ruether later admitted: 'We heard the rumors. We saw the strange plays. We knew something was off.' But did they take advantage?
Some Reds players claimed they played clean, but others—like Heinie Groh—noticed the Sox’s sudden incompetence. 'They weren’t the same team,' he said.
The Double-Cross: A Gambler’s Betrayal
The fix was orchestrated by Arnold Rothstein, New York’s gambling kingpin. But when the Sox demanded more money, the payouts dried up. By Game 6, some Sox players—furious at being stiffed—started trying to win.
Too late. The Reds took the Series, 5-3.
The Fallout: Eight Men Out… But What About the Reds?
A year later, the scandal exploded. Eight White Sox players—including Jackson and Cicotte—were banned for life. But the Reds? Their victory remained, tainted but unchallenged.
The Unanswered Questions:
Did some Reds players suspect the fix and exploit it?
Why did it take a full year for the truth to surface?
Was the real crime not just the fix… but the cover-up?
The Verdict: A Stain on Baseball
The 1919 Series wasn’t just about the White Sox’s betrayal—it was about a sport rotting from within. The Reds walked away with a title, but baseball lost its innocence.
And somewhere, Shoeless Joe Jackson—batting .375 in the Series despite the fix—whispered: 'God knows I gave my best.'
But did the Reds?
Case Unsolved.
