EIGHT MEN OUT (1988) | Eddie Throws The Game | MGM

I love the looks of confusion when someone makes a play lol its somewhat comical

[@scottmorissey8915]

@ 1:17, incorrect. The White Sox tied the game in the top of the second. Irony: Chick Gandil singled home the Chicago run! Who scored the lone Chicago run you ask? Why Shoeless Joe Jackson!

Later he died in a hospital in New Jersey during a lock down. Dr. House confirmed that he would have made the correct diagnosis and saved him had he taken the case. I wonder if his estranged daughter ever understood the voice message.

He then led the Belters against Marcos Inaros!

Hoboken I believe

[@edlawn5481]

Reminds me of the Yankees Fifth Inning in Game 5 against the Dodgers.

[@nilssonakerlund2852]

I have no sympathy for comisky tbh

[@everything_mania]

The movie wasn't entirely accurate. The WS were the 3rd highest paid team in the AL in 1919 and Cicotte was the second highest paid pitcher in the league. He was also given a chance to win his 30th game, which he didn't and no such bonus actually existed in his contract anyway.

Funny how many people think the movie is factual. ​@@everything_mania

[@1313tennisman]

@@everything_mania ballplayers in general were paid a pittance of what they made for the owners. Though thats still true today its more even. I have little sympathy for long dead aristocrats of baseball.

[@everything_mania]

@@1313tennisman Who said anyone should have sympathy for anyone? The point I was making is that the WS, as a whole, were paid better than the majority of the players in the American League. And by the standard of the time, were making way more than the avg. person. For instance, Joe Jackson's salary in 1919 was $6000. The avg. salary in the US was just over $1000. These guys were being compensated well for the time period.

​@@shanetrimble9265yup. Same for Moneyball. Probably 75% bullcrap
