Large 1918 photograph from spring training showing first baseman Chic Gandil as he strokes the ball during batting practice. Taken a year before he and his teammates turned the baseball world upside down by throwing the World Series for money, this is a unique new discovery from NEA that is being offered here for the first time ever. If you look closely in the background, that is fellow Black Sox gambler Fred McMullen waiting for his hacks!
