It was the most notorious scandal in the history of professional sports: eight Chicago White Sox players were charged with throwing the World Series in 1919. THE BLACK SOX SCANDAL: AMERICAN STORIES explores how and why these athletes, including "Shoeless" Joe Jackson, worked together to betray their teammates and fans for a risky payout. The film examines how their wild scheme came to light as well as the events that followed. The hour-long documentary also seeks to dispel myths about the team's then-owner, Charles Comiskey, while exploring the scandal's lingering impact on the modern-day game.
