They've always been the White Sox.
Dan TantonGUEST
Were they the Black Sox? Yeah, I think they changed.
Dan TantonGUEST
Well, the
BrandonHOST
Black Sox was the Black Sox, but I think that has to do with the 1919 – Oh, that's just a nickname.
BrandonHOST
I think that's a nickname.
BrandonHOST
White Sox fans, diehards, I could be wrong, but I think you're referring to 1919.
BrandonHOST
And that was
Dan TantonGUEST
just a nickname.
MattGUEST
So first I jumped on, for pre-war, I jumped on Eddie Collins because I think he's like the Forrest Gump of pre-war baseball.
MattGUEST
He comes on, plays for Connie Mack, gets sold, leaves, goes to the Black Sox.
MattGUEST
It's part of that whole scandal there.
MattGUEST
And then goes on to be GM of the Red Sox and discovers Williams and Doar.
MattGUEST
I'm sorry.
MattGUEST
So then the rabbit holes open up after there.
MattGUEST
You know, who he played with, the $100,000 infield, the Black Sox.
MattGUEST
You know, it's cool.

Tony LeebrickGUEST
It's the 1919 story.
Tony LeebrickGUEST
Our 1918 Black Sox team, you know, and they threw the World Series.
Tony LeebrickGUEST
I thought that was so cool, like how it went down.
Tony LeebrickGUEST
Not cool that they did it, but hearing the stories behind it, collecting that team set from the strip cards, the W514s, like it's those things that really turned me on.
Jason ClouseHOST
Thank you.
Jason ClouseHOST
Like we mentioned, when the Milwaukee Brewers won the National League pennant, you came and you sent me a message alluding to the fact that we saw potentially, possibly, allegedly, we saw the makings of what could be, if it winds up becoming true, The most controversial take on a series since the 1919 Black Sox scandal that marred the World Series.
Jason ClouseHOST
That, I mean, if you're not in the know on what the Black Sox scandal was, let me get... gave you the cliff notes.
Jason ClouseHOST
The Chicago White Sox were playing in the World Series.
Jason ClouseHOST
the almighty Dodgers took the big bump off a finger poke from Hogan, who would have been the Dodgers, or I'm sorry, the Brewers.
Jason ClouseHOST
And so as everybody was having a shit fit about it, that represented the MLB owners.
Jason ClouseHOST
But Vinny, when you start comparing that, what we saw, if that is the case, to the 1919 Black Sox scandal, that is as damning of a statement that you can make.
Jason ClouseHOST
So kind of talk me through what brought you to this scenario.
JeffHOST
We're very casual here.
JeffHOST
Curse of the Black Sox, of course, Shoeless Joe.
JeffHOST
That ended up in 2005.
JeffHOST
How about the Angels? The Angels are cursed.
