1919 World Series Play By Play - Play by play accounts of each game of the 1919 World Series, we report, you decide!! We suggest you print these pages out, take three highlighters of different colors, say a yellow, pink, and a green. Highlight all the plays Joe is involved in with the green highlighter and then highlight all the plays that Eddie Collins (in yellow) and Ray Schalk (in pink) are involved in (supposely not in on the fix). After having done this it should be clear that even Collins and Schalk had plays that could be looked upon as suspect. While we do not believe, nor are we suggesting that Eddie Collins and Ray Schalk were in on a fix, we are saying that if you start suspecting someone of foul play you can read things into every action they make, that does not make a person guilty. This was baseball, in baseball you are going to have balls hit over your head, you are going to have balls hit out of your reach, you are going to fly out from time to time, as well as strike out. All these things happened to Collins, as well as Joe. Again, this does not make a man guilty of fixing games, it could simply just be baseball. We believe that Joe Jackson played his heart out and played to win. Once you take a detailed look, you might just agree with us.
