After the Black Sox: The Chicago White Sox in Transition, 1920-1926 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781476697697)

The Black Sox Scandal, which saw eight players on a seemingly invincible Chicago team conspire to "throw" the 1919 World Series, remains the biggest "black eye" baseball ever suffered. Yet there's been little written about what happened afterward, when half the club's talent was banished from the game--a shattering loss that no other team before or since has experienced.

This book is the first to focus on the scandal's aftermath, exploring the impact on the Chicago franchise, its players, its fans and its owner. The author explains how eight players went crooked, how the "Clean Sox" reacted to the game-fixing by their colleagues and how, over the course of a handful of seasons, the franchise overhauled its roster and moved forward.
