This book is the exciting story of how one of the most infamous scandals in American history—the Black Sox scandal—continued for over a year following the “fixed” World Series of 1919 until the truth began to emerge. It is a story of gamblers and crooks; a story of teammates betraying one another; a story of investigations and cover-ups.

Don Zminda spent more than two decades with STATS LLC, first as director of publications and then director of research for STATS-supported sports broadcasts. He has written or edited over a dozen sports books, including The Legendary Harry Caray: Baseball’s Greatest Salesman (Rowman & Littlefield, 2019) and the SABR publication Go-Go to Glory: The 1959 Chicago White Sox. He has been a member of the Society for Baseball Research since 1979. A Chicago native, Zminda now resides in Los Angeles.
