Did shoeless joe Jackson throw the World Series?

Shoeless Joe Jackson in my opinion did not throw the 1919 World Series. When you hit .375 and one third of your hits are for extra bases, i don't even know how you can speculate that he tried to throw it. He also had the most RBI's (6), and the most Runs scored (5) by the White Sox. Jackson also had the only homerun throughout the 1919 World Series. So sports experts and any person in general can think what they want, but in my opinion he did not try to throw the 1919 World Series.
