The infamous Black Sox Scandal of 1919 occurred when the Chicago White Sox players, dissatisfied with their low pay, accepted bribes to intentionally lose the World Series, leaving a lasting stain on sports history.

The 1919 World Series, known as the Black Sox Scandal, is brought to life in this semi-fictionalized account. The Chicago White Sox, considered one of the greatest teams ever, is favored to win against the Reds. However, team owner Charles A. Comiskey has financially exploited the players, leading to a sense of unappreciation among them. Professional gamblers take advantage of this opportunity, trying to fix the game and series.
