Cleaning up the Black Sox?

May 14, 2014

Does a review carry more weight if it’s done by A Hall of Famer-award winning writer? In this case, Paul Hogan who received the Spink Award for 2013 for contributions to baseball writing published this one about Tim Hornbaker’s Turning the Black Sox White: The Misunderstood Legacy of Charles A. Comiskey on the MLB website. As Hagen concludes, “Those who revile Comiskey see this as a gross injustice. After reading this book, they just might change their minds.”

FYI, here are a few more book reviews contributed by Hagen for MLB.com:
