All,
In the history of baseball there have been 35 men who have been permanently expelled from the game. (32 players, 1 umpire and 2 owners.) Eight of the 35 have been reinstated. (The list of 35 can be viewed at www.1919BlackSox.com.)
It should be noted that Hal Chase, Bill Burns, Paul Carter, Claude Hendrix, Dutch Leonard, Bill Maharg and Heinie Zimmermann were "unofficially" banned from baseball. A more accurate account was that these players were blackballed from ever playing in the Major Leagues.
Regards,
Erik V.
