Wikipedia - "The Black Sox Scandal refers to an incident that took place around and during the play of the 1919 World Series. The name 'Black Sox' also refers to the Chicago White Sox team from that era. Eight members of the major league franchise were banned for life from baseball for throwing (intentionally losing) games, and essentially giving the series to the Cincinnati Reds."
