| 7/29/25 | Black Sox, Ohtani's interpreter and more: A look at prominent sports betting scandals. Betting scandals have been a concern for professional sports leagues for as long as they've existed, but a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in May 2018 has led to a wave of gambling incidents involving athletes and officials. The ruling struck down a federal law that barred sports betting in most states and opened the doors for online sportsbooks to take up a prominent space in the sports ecosystem. • In 1920, a Chicago grand jury indicted eight members of the Chicago White Sox on charges of fixing the 1919 World Series, which became known as the “Black Sox Scandal.” White Sox owner Charles Comiskey immediately suspended the eight players, including “Shoeless” Joe Jackson, and they were banned permanently a year later by newly appointed baseball commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis.

| 6/08/25 | Morris's own Shoeless Joe roots for White Sox legend to go into the Hall of Fame. Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred announced in early May that Shoeless Joe Jackson would be one of a few players to have their lifetime ban from the game removed. Although Jackson passed away in 1951, this opens the door to right a wrong Morris resident Joe Schmitz believes should have been corrected almost a century ago – Shoeless Joe Jackson can go into the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. Schmitz serves on the Shoeless Joe Jackson Museum Advisory staff, and he's met members of the White Sox legend's family and the museum curator.
