Well, he took the money = guilty. Lot of your stories are hearsay. He batted .356 in 13 years, which is astonishing. But, I imagine that number would fall a bit if he played 20 seasons like most others back then. Nonetheless, the guy must have been something truly special. Ruth tried to emulate his swing, and Cobb called him the best batter ever. He still deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. Shit, they put his damn cleats in the Hall of Fame, but not him. Pete Rose is another ballplayer deserving to be in. The MLB need to rectify this. Unless they have a good deal of proof against Joe. Throwing the world series for the Mob is a terrible crime. Don't care how well he played in it statistically. I also guarantee most people don't know he played 8 games that World Series. It was a best of 9 series, not best of 7.
The greatest baseball player ever and scapegoated . R.I.P. Shoeless Joe Jackson.Hes Playing baseball with Jesus and God now .From the World series to the Eternal series. Shoeless Joe Jackson is in the Hall of Eternal Glory with Jesus and The Creator. A much better place than man's Hall of Fame.Amen.🇺🇸⚾️🕊⛑️🇺🇸⚾️🕊
We need to have a " Shoeless Day " here in Chicagoland every year to raise funds for our beloved Joe. With big money 💰 we can take legal action for as long as it takes to get this man some Justice in America 🇺🇸 where we live free or Die.
Charles Comiskey is enshrined in the HOF. He was a scumbag owner. He stole from his players. Recall the his starting pitcher (Claude "Lefty" Williams, if i recall correctly) in the Black Sox season had a contractual clause that if he won so many games (20 or 30), that he'd get a bonus. Comiskey stopped starting him to avoid paying the bonus. Comiskey did that to a # of the "Black Sox", which was why they took the $, they needed it. If that POS Comiskey is enshrined, then Shoeless Joe should be too, and possibly a couple others of the crew!!!
With the Houston Astros 2017 World Series team not being banned from baseball forever for cheating, means that Major League Baseball should reinstate the 1919 White Sox, and the GREAT Shoeless Joe Jackson !!
trying to understand the difference between little league baseball and Major League baseball is impossible for a poor kid in a state that does not have a MLB team. i was born and raised at South Carolina, discovered MLB after moving to Texas before my senior year of high school. kids who live at South Carolina now should be taught more about sports legends from there. i was never told about Shoeless Joe during my childhood or any thing about the Major Leagues.
once they took the money the outcome of the series was affected no matter whether they actually tried to throw the series or not the very fact that they entertained this idea and planned it changed the future and jackson was part of the scheme even if he did not try to throw the series they lost the series without needing jackson to lay down but jackson was still potentially available since he took the money and would be liable a player who sits on the bench and doesnt play still gets a ring if his team wins and can still affect the game from sitting on the bench jackson by taking the money affected the outcome of the series regardless of how he played in fact even if the white sox had won the series they might still be banned becuz win/lose the series was altered by the players accepting money even if they changed their minds and won the series the outcome is affected one can argue that they now had extra motivation to win to get themselves off the hook so they took more chances and played more aggressively its not just whether they lost on purpose its also whether the outcome changed which it did
ThIs is a joke!! Don't watch! Watch the Ken Burns baseball segment. I have pity for the dumb and clueless player Jackson. He was so good, but didn't know better. His home and away stats in the world series were completely different. OF COURSE he took the money. He needed it. Players were so taken advantage of then, even more than today.
Christy Mathewson was watching the games with Ring Lardner. They sensed something was fishy. They agreed to keep track independently of who they thought was tanking. They both picked the same 7 players. That included Joe Jackson. I trust Mathewson's judgement.
Pete Rose broke Cobb's hit record in 85, Anyone know how many more at bats Rose had than Ty Cobb? Rose played over 25 years, Ty Cobb even said that Joe Jackson was a better hitter than him, Shoeless Joe should have been in the HOF 80 years ago, just like Ruth and Cobb
It's been 102 years since the accusation of Shoeless Joe being a cheater. Evidence proved that he was innocent of any wrongdoing. Still there are some people who believe the lies that have been out there for decades. The man is innocent and belongs back in baseball and the Hall of Fame. End game.
Actually, the 1919 White Sox had the highest payroll in the AL that year. And the Commissioners lifetime ban was about not only throwing games, but also participating in meetings where discussion of games being thrown took place. In Jacksons case, he took $5,000 for throwing games, whether he actively threw them or not. We have no real video from the 1919 WS so it is hard to say what he did or did not do.
Could you tell me how you get the rights to use that music? Love the video. Would also love to see a swing of joe jackson if you know of any video. Thanks!
As a player in baseball till I was 20 , torn hamstring at a legion all star game ended my hopes for contact . Then coaching baseball and softball for my 4 children , just to show my love of the game. For Pete Rose , the man was a great ball player not for natural talent but because he had the will to beat you and he made every one around him better ( as a player ) . When he went to the Phillies he made Mike Schmidt one of the best at that time , but he bet on his own team (Reds ) , played himself and not Gary Redus . So for Pete no HOF. As for Joe Jackson if a mouse takes the cheese the trap will kill him , this is the case with Joe if he took the bait he is guilty does not matter if his conscience bothered him and he played well in spite , it just doesn't matter no HOF.
If it wasn't for the throw out the world series called the black Sox's scandal 1919 shoeless joe Jackson should be in the hall of fame but I think it's long over due to be banned from baseball but for Pete rose being banned from baseball for betting against his team to win money should be banned from the hall of fame
I'm a White Sox fan and Comiskey was a cheap skate man that's one reason why they did it man even got aquiteted but it didn't matter wtf I agree he should go in it's been more than 100 years come on
Despite weighing only 195 pounds, Jackson could bench press 475 pounds, an amazing total for that day. And as a golfer, he hit so many holes-in-one that he was banned from his community golf course. This was a man born to achieve in the world of sports.
I sure would like to know where you read this stuff because Shoeless Joe never got banned from a golf course because he hit too many hole in ones. That would never happen to anyone. I also highly doubt he could bench 475 lb. He was an incredible baseball player but I think you're embellishing here. If I'm wrong please tell me where to read these facts.
And how much money is baseball making on gambling now?And they are putting a team in Vegas? Like that won't cause problems?

You are disgusting liar and radical. It wont be ordinary since you democrats cheat all the time. Save our democracy, vote trump 2924

Enough is Enough. Give this man his rightful place in the HOF!!!!!
Now the record books say Josh Gibson is the best, I do believe that Joe Jackson belongs in the Baseball Hall Of Fame.
Jackson is clearly wearing shoes.
Joe jackson❤❤❤
Joe Belongs in, Pete Does NOT!
👊GUILTY!👎

You can't ignore his numbers or the opinions of those already in the HOF.
With the Houston Astros 2017 World Series team not being banned from baseball forever for cheating, means that Major League Baseball should reinstate the 1919 White Sox, and the GREAT Shoeless Joe Jackson !!
Totally Agree. Joe Soundedca Humble Man !
He deserves in Hall
I think its time ,for Jackson to be enshrined in Cooperstown.
Gehrig!!!
Nice!!!
Put Joe jackson in the hall, the man was a humble hard working southerner that had no involvement.
Thought it was a ‘lifetime’ ban 🧐
Drop a JCole beat to this but I like the blue grass too don’t get me wrong
I’ve heard of Brainless Joe Biden.
Hey Joe, read any good books lately?
Hopefully one day a Commissioner of MLB with guts will install Shoeless Joe Jackson into Cooperstown where he belongs!
trying to understand the difference between little league baseball and Major League baseball is impossible for a poor kid in a state that does not have a MLB team. i was born and raised at South Carolina, discovered MLB after moving to Texas before my senior year of high school. kids who live at South Carolina now should be taught more about sports legends from there. i was never told about Shoeless Joe during my childhood or any thing about the Major Leagues.
Amazing that there is a scumbag like O.J. Simpson in the NFL hall of fame but Jackson isn't in the baseball hall of fame.
Did Joe at least wear socks while he went shoeless ? Asking for a friend.

I've heard Williams talk about the greatest player and he doesn't say Jackson. He says Ruth. Good video
The White Sox had the third highest payroll behind the Yankees and red sox.
Christy Mathewson was watching the games with Ring Lardner. They sensed something was fishy. They agreed to keep track independently of who they thought was tanking. They both picked the same 7 players. That included Joe Jackson. I trust Mathewson's judgement.
Good story,but certainly don’t believe it
There was a question bc of one play. Let's not overdo it.
Pete Rose broke Cobb's hit record in 85, Anyone know how many more at bats Rose had than Ty Cobb? Rose played over 25 years, Ty Cobb even said that Joe Jackson was a better hitter than him, Shoeless Joe should have been in the HOF 80 years ago, just like Ruth and Cobb

Threw the ball so hard he broke his catchers arm. 👏😮👏
Babe ruth called shoeless Joe Jackson goat to play the game of baseball should be in the hall of fame
If it wasn't for the throw out the world series called the black Sox's scandal 1919 shoeless joe Jackson should be in the hall of fame but I think it's long over due to be banned from baseball but for Pete rose being banned from baseball for betting against his team to win money should be banned from the hall of fame
Bravo ! One more deserved place for him on Earth.... the Hall of Fame INDEED !
2:22
It's time to end it put Joe in
Kennesaw Mountain Landick
I'm a White Sox fan and Comiskey was a cheap skate man that's one reason why they did it man even got aquiteted but it didn't matter wtf I agree he should go in it's been more than 100 years come on
Landis and Cap Anson should be removed from the Hall. And replaced by Pete Rose and Shoeless Joe Jackson.
The comment about Landis not letting Black players in the show is a compelling side of the argument.
Joe Jackson did not throw the game . He was a good man. He got Cheated out of his career. He should have never been banned
Despite weighing only 195 pounds, Jackson could bench press 475 pounds, an amazing total for that day. And as a golfer, he hit so many holes-in-one that he was banned from his community golf course. This was a man born to achieve in the world of sports.

You should read what they said about Babe Ruth. Probably that he could bench more than Jackson.
@@Snatchystashy He pulled those 'facts' OutOfHisAss.
