The 1919 Chicago White Sox lost the World Series to the Reds. It was discovered shortly after that the Sox players threw the series away and betted on the games. 8 or 9 Sox players were banned for life from the game of Baseball. It eventually became known as the Black Sox Scandal, hence the name Black Sox.
