I always found it interesting what was said in the Ken Burn's Baseball documentary. They said, the Black Sox Scandal almost ruined baseball, then Kennesaw Mountain Landis came and brought integrity to the game and then Babe Ruth came and saved baseball by making everyone draw their attention to the great aspects of the game. I had never thought of it like that before.

Personally, to me it is like a Greek tragedy, especially when it comes to Shoeless Joe, who is now a haunted and almost mythical figure.
