In Case You Thought Scandals Were New...

William Cook has an interesting book out on the gambling scandal of 1877...yeah, 1877. It involved the St. Louis Grays (the who?) and resulted in several players being banned for life for throwing games.

And yet again, proof that gambling and professional ball do not mix.

Ever.
