What it’s about. Basado en la historia verdadera del escándalo del equipo de béisbol de los medias blancas en el año 1919. El propietario de los medias blancas de Chicago, Charlie Comiskey, siente poca inclinación por recompensar la espectacular temporada que está realizando su equipo. Cuando un sindicato del juego dirigido por Arnold Rothstein se hace eco del descontento de la plantilla, le ofrece a algunas de sus estrellas -incluyendo al pitcher Eddie Cicotte, al infielder Buck Weaver y al outfielder "calcetines" Joe Jackson- más dinero por jugar por debajo de sus posibilidades en las series mundiales contra los Cincinnati Reds.
