    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buck_Weaver Buck was one of the 'Eight Men Out', and according to the wikipedia article, in the movie of the same name, John Cusack played Buck. It has been argued that it should have been 'Seven Men Out' as Buck argued he was not in on the fix. He was never reinstated as the argument was that he could have known, should have known and should have told officials.

    One of the 8 implicated in the "Black Sox" scandal: commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Eight_men_banned.png

    Dated 1918 by Pictorial History Committee, Society for American Baseball Research, but Sox did not wear any pinstripes that year. Felsch played on the Sox 1917 team as well, so likely 1917 as with other pix in this series. See
