    Gambling with the Bronx Bombers: Betting On, Against, and with the Yankees

    GAMBLING WITH THE BRONX BOMBERS: BETTING ON, AGAINST, AND WITH THE YANKEES Ronald J. Rychlak* The New York Yankees, arguably the most hallowed name in all of pro- fessional sports, has probably had more money wagered on the outcome of its games than any other team in any sport.1 Although few people today may be aware of it, the team itself has a long history of association with gamblers and gambling. The first owners of the Yankees were notorious gamblers; the team’s first captain was indicted in the 1919 “Black Sox” scandal; one Yankees’ pitcher was suspected of having thrown another Series game; one owner had ties to underworld figures in Las Vegas; another owner was suspended for his dealings with a known gambler; and one of the most beloved Yankees of all time was barred from baseball due to his association with a casino.2 Addition- ally, it has been suggested that the Yankees’ threat of moving to New Jersey in the mid-1990s was linked to New York State authorizing gambling.3 I. EARLY INNINGS: GAMBLING ON A NEW LEAGUE The relationship between the Yankees and gambling, which continues today, began even before the first Yankee players took the field.4 In the 1800s, people thought of baseball in the same way people today might think of horse racing or jai alai – gambling was simply part of the sport. Brooklyn’s Union Grounds was considered the finest ballpark of the 1870s. One reason was because it had a special facility inside the stadium for the use of bookmakers * B.A.
  • Eliot Asinof - Eight Men Out

    Eliot Asinof - Eight Men Out Eight Men Out The Black Sox and the 1919 World Series Eliot Asinof 1963 To Gahan and Marty "As Jackson departed from the Grand Jury room, a small boy clutched at his sleeve and tagged along, after him. "'Say it ain't so, Joe,' he pleaded. 'Say it ain't so.'" —Chicago Herald and Examiner, September 30, 1920 "The most gigantic sporting swindle in the history of America!" These headlines proclaiming the 1919 fix of the World Series startled millions of readers and focused the attention of the entire country on one of the most incredible episodes ever to be enacted in the public eye. Now, after painstaking research, Eliot Asinof has reconstructed the entire scene-by-scene story of this fantastic scandal in which eight Chicago White Sox players arranged with the nation's leading gamblers to throw the series to Cincinnati. Mr. Asinof vividly describes the tense meetings, the hitches in the conniving, the actual plays in which the Series was thrown, the Grand Jury indictment, and the famous 1921 trial. Moving behind the scenes, he perceptively examines the motives and backgrounds of the players and the conditions that made the improbable fix all too possible. Here are the anguished, guilty pitchers, Eddie Cicotte and "Lefty" Williams; the bewildered, fixed left fielder, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson; and the victimized third baseman, "Buck" Weaver. There are also deft portrayals of Charles Comiskey and Ban Johnson, as well as of deeply shocked newspapermen like Ring Lardner. The graphic picture of the American underworld which managed the fix lends eerie fascination to the book.

    Collection Number BA MSS 16 BL-3049.96 Title Black Sox Scandal (American League Records) Inclusive Dates 1914-1969; bulk 1919-1921 Abstract Records and photographs from American League President Ban Johnson’s office relating to the Black Sox World Series Scandal in 1919, when eight players from Charles Comiskey’s White Sox were indicted for throwing games for financial gain. Other baseball gambling incidents discussed in the collection include the relationship between New York pitcher Carl Mays and Boston gambler “Pete the Greek,” and a 1917 incident in which the White Sox players took up a collection to pay pitchers from the Detroit club, who beat Boston at a crucial point in the pennant race, $200 each. The records consist primarily of Johnson’s correspondence but also include trial documents and exhibits, player interviews and depositions, the reports of private investigators hired by the League, and photocopies of period newspaper accounts of the scandal. Provenance The collection was donated to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in 1995 by the Office of the Commissioner.

The review of literature in relationship to the research purpose and research questions are divided into the following sections: (1) Different Types of Scandals/Ways of Cheating In Baseball, (2) Players That Were Involved in Different Scandals, (3) Major League Baseball Hall of Fame Entrance Qualifications, (4) How the Hall of Fame Voting Committee Has Not Had Consistency in Their Voting, and (5) Current Hall of Famers' Opinions. The Literature Review demonstrated many different ways of cheating in baseball. Insight into Major League iv Baseball and the Hall of Fame was attained via a variety of media sources. The quantitative research provided several miscreants that have been involved in transgressions which do not live up to the Integrity and Character classifications that the Hall of Fame looks for in a candidate.
