Not true.

First of all, there were 2 starting pitchers, 5 starting position players, and one reserve infielder that were implicated in the fix ...... not all position players.

Secondly, Buck Weaver, who never took a dime, batted .324 in the series without making an error, similar to Jackson's .375 without making an error.

Jackson and Weaver both played to win.

Eddie Cicotte pitched 3 games, lost the first 2 intentionally before winning Game Seven after it was clear that the gamblers had double-crossed his teammates, and paid them much less than they had promised to.

I was about to pounce on that. Thanks OFFNY!!!

So tragic. All the talk of Pete Rose and this injustice still lives on with little attention.
