Large 1919 pitching action photograph of Eddie Cicotte from the Chicago White Sox as he warms up near the end of the season in which he and his teammates absolutely dominated the American League. The fix was in however and within a few weeks from the date on the back of this photo, Cicotte and seven others would throw the World Series to enrich themselves and gamblers. A poignant piece of baseball photography with an important date on the back.
