The story
Cicotte was motivated because Comiskey refused him a promised $10,000 should he win 30 games for the season.
Buck Weaver, meanwhile, insists that he is a winner and wants nothing to do with the fix.
Several of the players become upset, however, when the various gamblers involved fail to pay their promised money up front.
