The 1919 World Series : What Really Happened? Paperback / softback
by William A. Cook
Paperback / softback
Description
One of baseball's infamous events is the 1919 World Series between the Chicago White Sox and the Cincinnati Reds.
Overshadowed by the suspicion cast upon, and the subsequent indictment of, eight White Sox players for throwing the games, the 1919 World Series has often been simplistically and inaccurately portrayed by the popular media in the decades since.
This book takes an objective look at the series, players, managers, owners, and on-field events to separate fact from fiction in regard to the outcome.
The Reds would probably have emerged victorious no matter how the game was played because they were, in fact, an excellent team capable of beating the seemingly superhuman White Sox.
Included are various statistical references that include line and box scores as well as comparative statistical charts of batting averages, pitching and team records, and other relevant information.
