乔伊杰克森因为被指控控制1919年的世界大赛,而遭到禁赛,这就是所谓的「黑袜丑闻」 (Black Sox Scandal) 。柯布则因为涉嫌介入赌博而决定在1926年离开职业棒坛。不过后来美国职棒第一位行政管理人,也是棒球裁判基尼索蒙登蓝迪斯 (Kenesaw Mountain Landis) 证明柯布是清白的,并且让他重新添加职业棒坛。柯布是一个左打右投的球员,他在1936年获选进入「棒球名人堂」 (Baseball Hall of Fame) 。柯布在1961年出版了自传我的棒球生涯 (My Life in Baseball) 。


Joe Jackson was banned from baseball after being involved in a conspiracy to "throw" (fix the outcome of) the World Series in 1919, known as the Black Sox Scandal. Cobb was allowed to resign from professional baseball in 1926 after supposedly being involved in gambling violations. Later, baseball's first commissioner, Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, cleared Cobb of charges and allowed him to play again. Cobb, a left-handed batter who threw with his right hand, was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1936. Cobb's autobiography, titled My Life in Baseball, was published in 1961.
