LIFETIME BAN ($60,000 – $70,000)

On October 9, 1919, after winning Games 6 and 7, the Chicago White Sox faced off against the Cincinnati Reds, in a “must-win” 8th game of the World Series.

The White Sox were widely considered one of the best baseball teams in the sports’ history. But they lost by a score of 10-5.

Long story short, 8 members of the team were accused of ‘fixing’ the series, in exchange for money.

The players were acquitted in their 1921 trial, but the Commissioner of the MLB issued a lifetime ban from professional baseball – to all of them. What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?

Absolutely nothing!
