INFAMOUS AMERICA | Black Sox Ep1: “The Glory Days”

INFAMOUS AMERICA presented by Black Barrel Media. Baseball’s progression from an amateur activity to a professional sport is full of great stories. Hear about the myths and legends of early baseball; the pioneers and the inventors; the moguls and the superstars. And the gamblers. It all leads to the formation of the 1919 Chicago White Sox and sets in motion the elements of one of the most infamous scandals in baseball history. Special thanks to the SABR Black Sox Scandal Research Committee.

Shoeless Joe is one of the few famous people from my own hometown of Greenville. Glad to hear him on here! 👍 Interested to learn more about him.

These podcasts are super accurate the music is great and the story telling is unreal. Is there anyway you can do one on John Brown

[@brettmitchell8014]

Sweet video. Thanks so much.

[@jayphillips8568]

You are a putting on the best podcasts I have ever heard. Your depth and presentation are mesmerizing. I just discovered these podcasts and please keep them coming.

Definitely checking out that D.B Cooper series after this, such a interesting story

[@geraldwalker3012]

Excellent work. When I listen to the history of baseball like the Ken Burns series or something like this it makes me want to buy a season ticket.

You just got a subscriber. This is great.

Great work.

And given how employment in the majors is a revolving door, It's practically impossible that Connie Mack's record will ever be broken

[@twinsboy_3410]

Omg. You should have named this KEN BURNS BASEBALL INNINGS 1 and 2. Straight stolen from that. Man😂

I thought the 1919 series was going to be the subject of this presentation. I don't care to hear of the history of the game from the 1700s. I don't believe Chick Gandil. Eddie Cicotte, Oscar Felsch, Lefty Williams et al did either.

[@ChibiPanda8888]

Calm down, dude. I for one appreciate the background history. I don't know a whole lot about the history of baseball, unlike you do, apparently. Be patient with those of us who know nothing. Chris is putting the history in so that those of us who know nothing can appreciate this series too.

@@ChibiPanda8888 Chibi, I'd like the presenters to be honest and upfront regarding their work. Write exactly what the presentation is so that those of us who have more than scant subject knowledge can move on. Much like the presentations that advertise "The sad ending of Kokomo Joe." Come to find out it wasn't a sad ending and in many cases, Kokomo Joe is still alive and kicking. Click bait gives me the hives.
