It should be noted that Cobb and Tris Speaker were both "suspended" for their collective role in fixing games during the regular season. Landis allowed both to continue in baseball.

The documents that the Chicago Baseball Museum and Chicago History Museum recently acquired also show that Joe Jackson tried to turn the $$$ over BEFORE the 1919 series and was sent away. Both league presidents knew about the fix and did nothing to stop it.

The next person reinstated would probably be Buck Weaver since Holtzman recommended it before he passed last year.
