White Sox first baseman C. Arnold “Chick” Gandil and a gambler named Joseph “Sport” Sullivan met to discuss the possibility of Sox players throwing the championship. They agreed on $100,000 to throw the game. White Sox pitchers Eddie Cicotte, Claude “Lefty” Williams, shortstop Charles “Swede” Risberg, outfielder Oscar “Happy” Felsch were all in on the scheme. Third baseman Buck Weaver was in on the early stages of the plot before pulling out. Infielder Fred McMullin was cut in after he overheard the players talking about the deal. Also among the black socks was power hitter “Shoeless” Joe Jackson.

In October 1920, Gandil, Cicotte, Williams, Risberg, Felsch, McMullin, Weaver and Jackson the “Black Sox” were indicted on nine counts of conspiracy. After the June trial in 1921, all the paper records relating to their grand jury confessions vanished mysteriously.

On August 2, 1921, the Black Sox were found not guilty on all counts.

Only a day after the acquittal, Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, recently appointed as baseball’s first commissioner, decreed that all eight players were permanently banned from organized baseball. “Regardless of the verdict of juries,” Landis wrote, “no player who throws a ballgame, no player that undertakes or promises to throw a ballgame, will ever play professional baseball.”
