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.”

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.
