Honor Roll LOTG Guestbook LOTG Forum A Brief Sketch Links/Affiliations Home Lifetime .356 Batting Average Thanks to Ed Nixon of SABR for the following contribution. "...There is much I can tell you about Joe Jackson, but let me give you some highlights to his great career. In 1911 he batted .408 , but was still beat out by Ty Cobb . Over the course of two seasons, 1911 and 1912, he averaged .402. During a throwing contest, he tossed a baseball 396 feet on a line and beat out the likes of Babe Ruth, Bob Meusel, and others, to win a trophy. In thirteen years, Jackson struck out only 158 times. Jackson had a career high 32 OF assists in one season. In the 1919 WS he hit .375, threw out six baserunners, had 13 hits(the official scorer took away one hit, he called it an error on the fielder), hit the series only home run, fielded 1000 per cent, and they say this man was tanking the series!! what a crock!! Christy Mathewson said Jackson had no part in throwing the series, from what he observed from the scorers table. Nobody loved the game more than Joe Jackson, thats why he played outlaw and semi-pro ball until 1937....".

Extractions: Born in a family of poor textile mill workers, young Joe and his family worked long 12 hour days with little schooling and all remained illiterate. At age 13, Joe began pitching on the company's baseball team. His fastball was so forceful that he once broke a catchers' arm. No one was willing to catch Joe Jackson after that and he was moved to the outfield. His torrid hitting impressed all lookers and in 1907 he was signed for $75.00 a month by the Greenville Spinners - Class D - minor leagues. This salary was well over twice what he was making in the textile mill. Joe Jackson was fitted with a new pair of baseball spiked shoes but these new shoes gave him blisters so he played

Baseball - Growing Up With Shoeless Joe, History, Joe Thompson joe jackson's place in baseball will be forever shrouded in dispute about whathe did or did not do in connection with the attempt to fix the 1919 World http://www.publishersbookstore.com/jtipublishing/reviews.htm
Extractions: Joe Jackson's place in baseball will be forever shrouded in dispute about what he did or did not do in connection with the attempt to "fix" the 1919 World Series. For Joe Thompson, author of "Growing Up With Shoeless Joe," there is no dispute. Through the tarnish of official history, Joe Jackson still shines, to Thompson, as an innocent, gullible victim of a conspiracy that involved the owner of the White Sox, Charles Comiskey, and a cover-up in which the commissioner of baseball, Kenesaw M. Landis, was actively involved. Citizens living in a more innocent era could not believe that individuals who were guardians of our national game could possibly be involved in such low chicanery. In our more skeptical time, with other trusted American institutions in tatters, the possibility of official misconduct is less far-fetched. - William H. Millsaps, Jr.
Extractions: In this testimony Jackson sounds like a guilty man angry at the gamblers who short-changed him. To his backers, though, Jackson was a naive illiterate who never agreed to participate in the fix and merely repeated the story he was instructed to tell. The real villains in their version of the tale are the White Sox and their attorney, who schemed to deflect blame from the club by pinning it on Jackson.
Fall 1999: Shoeless Joe Jackson: From "Tragedy" To Farce called upon Major League baseball to remove the taint upon the memory of 'ShoelessJoe' jackson and honor his outstanding baseball accomplishments. Congress http://roadsidephotos.com/baseball/shoelessjoe.htm
Extractions: Fall 1999: Shoeless Joe Jackson: From "Tragedy" to Farce On November 8, the House of Representatives passed a resolution, co-sponsored by six South Carolina representatives, which called upon Major League Baseball to "remove the taint upon the memory of 'Shoeless Joe' Jackson and honor his outstanding baseball accomplishments ." Myth "Whereas in 1919, the infamous 'Black Sox' scandal erupted when an employee of a New York gambler allegedly bribed eight players of the Chicago White Sox, including Joseph Jefferson 'Shoeless Joe' Jackson, to throw the first and second games of the 1919 World Series to the Cincinnati Reds." Facts : The bribery was as "alleged" as the 1918 influenza epidemic. Only seven players were involved in the plot; the eighth, Buck Weaver, was charged only with knowing about the scheme but failing to report it. The con-spirators agreed to lose the entire World Series, not just the first two games, and at least three players - Chick Gandil, Ed Cicotte and Lefty Williams - unquestionably did try to throw the Series. Myth "Whereas in September 1920, a criminal court acquitted "Shoeless Joe" Jackson of the charge that he conspired to throw the 1919 World Series."
"Shoeless Joe" Jackson - Professional Baseball and does not promptly tell his club about it would ever play baseball again Furtheron this point is that joe jackson never met with the gamblers or the http://www.angelfire.com/pq/indianbob/bl025.html
Extractions: To begin with, did Joe Jackson know about the possible fixing of the World Series back in 1919? Obviously. Chick Gandil approached him on not one, but two occasions offering him $10 000 the first time and $20 000 the second time, Jackson testified this fact himself. Did Jackson report his suspicions to his club? Again yes. He went to Charles Comiskey and asked to be benched. In his own words he stated: "Tell the newspapers you just suspended me for being drunk, or anything, but leave me out of the series and then there can be no question." Now did he tell Comiskey about the fix? We can say that he probably did. How can we assume that? Well, I tried this scenario with a number of people and I got a 100 % response to it. I posed the question: "Suppose you were Charles Comiskey, your best player comes into your office requesting to be benched during the World Series, what would be the first thing you would say?" The answer was always the same, "Why?" So we can safely assume that Comiskey would put the question to Joe, and undoubtedly Jackson would have told him why. We know for a certainty that Comiskey knew about a possible fix, because he went to Ban Johnson as well as the president of the National League John A. Heydler during the World Series about his concerns. How did Comiskey find out? Quite possibly from that meeting with Joe Jackson confirmed the rumours that he heard about a possible fix. So it is very likely that Jackson did report the fix to his club.

Shoeless Joe Belongs In Cooperstown gets sent back to work by both Major League baseball and the players' union aftera drug arrest led the Anaheim Angels to suspend him, joe jackson, the player http://members.aol.com/charliezeb/shoeless.htm
Extractions: 16-Jul-1889 - 5-Dec-1951 The record shows that the 1919 World Series belongs to the Cincinnati Reds, having defeated the Chicago White Sox, five games to three. The record also shows that one of the White Sox, a Greenville, S.C., native named Joe Jackson, hit .375 in the series. Unfortunately, Jackson, a lifetime .356 hitter whose stance was copied by many, including Babe Ruth, does not occupy a place of honor at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, N.Y. Many are familiar with the saga of "Shoeless Joe" thanks to the book and movie Eight Men Out from the late 1980s. Eight key White Sox players, including several pitchers, were approached by Chicago gamblers and offered money to throw the Series to the Reds. We're talking big money: in several cases, as much as or more than the players made in salary for the season. Jackson wanted no part of the slush fund. His play proved it. Christy Mathewson, the great New York Giants pitcher whose playing career was over thanks to an injury from the World War, commented in the press box that something was amiss with the Series. He knew, though, that Jackson had not taken part. The courts agreed. Jackson was acquitted in mid-1920 of all charges in association with the Series gambling scandal. One would think this might clear the way for Jackson to finish his illustrious career with the grace with which he had played it.
Joe Jackson Commissioner Keneshaw Mountain Landis banned joe from Major League baseball forlife following the 1919 Chicago Black Sox scandal in which players admitted http://members.aol.com/anoblemind/baseball/jackson.htm
Extractions: I have left field pretty well covered with Shoeless Joe. No doubt one of the all time greats in the game of Baseball. His numbers speak for themselves. Ty Cobb said that Joe had the most natural swing he had ever seen. He said that he was taught how to hit from some confederate soldiers who learned in a union prison camp. A tragic event in the 1919 World Series keeps this great player out of the Hall of Fame. Commissioner Keneshaw Mountain Landis banned Joe from Major League Baseball for life following the 1919 Chicago Black Sox scandal in which players admitted, (Joe included) to conspiring with gamblers to throw the series. Despite the tragic events that be-felled one of Baseball's greatest players, I have him playing left field on my dream team. See Joe's stats here, and you can easily see why I have him playing Left and batting 6th. Let me know who you would have in left.

Extractions: Say it ain't so, Joe...... This site is devoted to the memory of "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and the many other memorable players of the turn of the century. My fascination for this particuliar player began about ten years ago, when my husband would take me along to baseball card shows, of which he has been an avid collector since 1950. I found myself viewing rows upon rows of baseball cards... and decided to begin a collection of my own. The cards that I was drawn to mostly.. were T206's... turn of the century.. "tobacco cards". The voice said " Build it and they will come".... and you have! So grab a "dog" or some popcorn and enjoy your visit.... and keep in mind..... " Shoeless " Joe Jackson belongs in the Hall of Fame!! :-) " The one constant through all the years, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It's been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt, and erased again. But.... baseball has marked the time. The fields, the game, the players.... are all a part of our pasts. It reminds us all of what was once good." By James Earl Jones... in Field of Dreams

Extractions: There has been a lot said and written about Joe Jackson by a variety of people - baseball people, baseball historians, scholars of the 1919 World Series, residents of the South (particularly South Carolina), and others. There's also been a variety of books produced about Jackson, most with his point of view or the "point of view he would have had," whatever that might have been at any point in time. It was with some skepticism that I picked up Fleitz's book and started to read, half expecting to see the same arguments that I've read before - Jackson as a victim, as the greatest player not in the Hall of Fame but for one mistake, and how he went back to South Carolina and scratched out a living (or was very successful, depending on which book you read). Fleitz's book was a most pleasant surprise - it offers information that I haven't found anywhere else, and gives more "flesh" and substance to the person that was Joe Jackson than any previous account of his life that I had read. One point is the relationship that he had with his wife: always shown as the doting couple, Fleitz writes that this wasn't always the case. In baseball, he shows that Jackson wasn't the near-mythological player that he had been portrayed, and that he did fail at any number of clutch situations. By the same token, Jackson is also frequently mentioned as a batting role model to any number of famous players. The reactions of contemporaries thoughtout the book is also delightful feature.
