The Loria situation was more like the movie "Major League" than most people realize. Loria wanted to own a team...in Florida- which he eventually did after he'd gutted the Expos and "sold" them to MLB in exchange for an expansion franchise in Miami. Rinse and repeat they managed a WS title in Miami then Loria cleaned house trading away young core guys (including future HOFer Miggy Cabrera). There was certainly more to it than that- former owner Claude Brochu wanted a new "real" baseball stadium downtown but couldn't get government support-political turmoil in Quebec and the hangover from the entire Olympic (stadium) debacle (which wasn't paid off until the Expos were long gone.) Along with a weak Canadian dollar and rising player salaries the 94 stoppage was pretty much the last nail in the coffin.

I wouldn't replace any of your top 10, but if you want to do a follow-up here are a few ideas: 1) Babe Ruth's "bellyache". Ruth had to check into a hospital for a "bellyache" which protective newspaper reporters attributed to eating too many hot dogs, but was probably some combination of alcohol poisoning and venereal disease. 2) Ray Chapman's death. He was hit in the head by a pitch from Carl Mays, a rather disagreeable pitcher with something of a head-hunting reputation. Many thought Mays hit him on purpose, not necessarily meaning to kill him, but still, they thought Mays should be banned. 3) Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker were accused by pitcher Dutch Leonard of conspiring to fix a late season game to try to alter the standings (there was prize money at the time for finishing second or third). Cobb and Speaker were both released by their teams, but ultimately weren't suspended because Leonard didn't show up for the hearing conducted by Commissioner Landis. 4) The 1910 batting chase. Ty Cobb and Nap Lajoie were battling for the batting title and a Chalmers automobile that went with it. On the final day of the season, the St. Louis Browns played their third baseman back so Lajoie could collect 8 bunt hits in a doubleheader. Cobb, who sat out the final game to preserve his average still won the title in a very close race. Chalmers awarded both men the car. 5) "Ball Four" by Jim Bouton exposed the drinking and womanizing by MLB players in a way that had never been done before, as it was baseball's first "tell-all" book. Bouton was ostracized from the baseball community for years for writing it.

About Jackson, there is serious debate on whether or not he ever took any money, and if he did, what he did with the money. As for throwing games, since he led both teams in batting average, hits, and homers, and committed no errors in the field, it is clear that he was playing on the level. He should have been admitted to the HOF years ago.

Great video Erick! A few other big scandals were huge deals too. One was the Tye Cobb scandal where a sensationalist journalist followed him around and then wrote a scathing book about him being a terrible person. No one knows what to make of it though because the journalist had actually lost all his credentials and was writing a book because he was banned from writing for essentially every publication for being caught lying on multiple occasions in his journalism. That's a pretty big scandal because either Cobb was as terrible as he said or he was continuing his trend of lying profusely about baseball players to further his own career. Of course there was the New York Mets Doc Gooden/Darryl Strawberry cocaine scandal. Ken Caminiti had his own cocaine scandal and unlike the 70's Pirates I believe all of those players were actually using crack cocaine. There's the Trevor Bauer scandal as well but it has some similarities to the Ty Cobb scandal in the sense that the allegations could all have just been made up since neither scandal involved a disreputable person making the claims. The other two scandals I can think of are the still ongoing Wander Franco scandal as well as the Felipe Vazquez scandal. I can definitely see not even wanting to discuss those though because they are so terrible. There were also at least a couple corked bat scandals. Sammy Sosa was caught using a corked bat during the game. Albert Belle used a corked bat that was confiscated and then they sent one of his teammates crawling through the ceiling to sneak in a room and replace the corked bat with a legal bat which wasn't corked to avoid being caught. John Rocker had his scandal as well and on top of that later admitted to using steroids. Great content though! I love this kind of content.

Even though the sign stealing scandal enabled unfair play, even though the team was practically unpunished, and arguably rewarded with further success for doing so nothing will ever compare to the Black Sox

Rose has plenty of acclaim in the Reds HOF - an excellent museum.

I have researched enough about the sign stealing "scandal" to know that electronic sign-stealing was a leaguewide problem. MLB actually implemented a sign stealing rule that prohibited electronic sign-stealing back in the year 2000. That rule was not officially updated until the end of 2018. It was the standing rule when everything was happening in 2017. 2000 Rule “No club shall use ELECTRONIC equipment, including walkie-talkies and cellular telephones, to communicate to or with any on-field personnel, including those in the dugout, bullpen field and-during the game-the clubhouse. Such equipment may not be used for the purpose of STEALING signs or CONVEYING information designed to give a club an advantage.” What I haven't been able to find out is what prompted MLB to implement that rule back then? What were teams doing back then? MLB had already been dealing with that problem for years. Tom Verducci then wrote how he thinks electronic sign-stealing became rampant leaguewide: Verducci explained: "Once baseball went to a challenge replay system (2014), they put television monitors within range of the dugoutS that had cameras dedicated from center field to the home plate area and those cameras were in REAL TIME. It was just too tempting for a lot of players not to take advantage of and misuse. That I call Pandora'a Box that was opened by players stealing signs. Now the Commissioner is trying to close that box and who knows what other forms of technology will make policing this kind of thing even more difficult." Teams were breaking the rule and MLB was fully aware of the problem. It would be interesting to know why that rule came into play back in 2000. Very interesting video, Erik. Thank you and love you! ❤❤

You know the one constant about corruption and baseball? Corrupt Officials, most especially Umpires (and most ESPECIALLY an Angel named Hernandez!)

You left out one of the biggest scandals: the collusion to pay minor league players pennies by both the owners AND the major league players union, not changing until 2023. Even at AAA, most players made less than a full time minimum wage job, despite the fact that MLB rakes in billions per year. Compare this with pro hockey where ALL the players negotiate together: NHL, AHL, ECHL, and other pro leagues, true COLLECTIVE bargaining and has been that way since the 1970s.

At the end of the day, does MLB really care about cheating? Hell some of these controversies made MLB more profitable than it ever has been. It's still a business as much as it is a sport.

I find it amusing that the fellow who played the Pirates mascot was involved in the drug scandal. Unbelievable!

Someone once told me as a kid “if you’re not cheating in baseball you’re really not trying to win”. I know he meant trying to steal signs the right way, scuffing up the ball, using sweat or snot on the ball to pitch ( not talking about the astros BS level of cheating) so basically baseball admits cheating has always been a part of their history with guys who used spitballs in the HOF but steroids, which saved baseball in 98 after the strike, was where we draw the line. This is why no one really takes the game seriously it’s a joke and then u have the silly unwritten rules basically for soft whiny pitchers who get their feelings hurt if a batter flips the bat after launching one 400+ ft

Knowing about the drugs in the 80s I say they need to leave the steroid era alone. In my opinion baseball knew about the steroids. How ironic that the long ball is what brought fans back to the MLB after the strike

The fact that bud selig, the guy who turned a blind eye to steroid use, has a plaque in the hall of fame while others do not is a complete joke.

The 1994 strike just showed how much the owners and players really cared about the sport. If you never watched or went to a game after that, I don't blame you. There were some good storylines, and they should have let them play out, and work on labor peace the next year. People say that steroids saved the game after that, but that's not anything to be proud of.

A thing about Hinch, he handled that about as well as possible. To outright ban it would risk it needing to be documented and publish that it happened. He outwardly opposed and destroyed the monitor, but is still a pariah.

Don't know if this qualifies but in 1912 Ty Cobb was suspended for going into the stands and beating up a fan who was heckling him and in protest the rest of the team refused to play so the Tigers had to piece together a team literally from the street. So a bunch of bush leaguers had to play the defending World Series champion A's and it turned out how you would imagine. The A's won the game 24-2.

The Hall of Fame is a joke if they don't put in Pete and the steroid guys. Steroids saved baseball. That home run race between Big Mac n Sosa was still the best TV I've ever seen. Everyone in America was watching.

Anyone caught cheating should be three strikes and you are out. Strike one should be a slap on the wrist, Strike two a harder punishment. Strike three and you are out for life, As for Pete Rose should be banned from the MLB for life. However, I do feel he should be up to the fans to vote him into the Hall of Fame. My vote would be yes. His stats had nothing to do with him voting on baseball. However, if it is true he never bet against his team. When it comes to the steroid era should be inducted to the Hall of Fame but with a **** beside their name. The same is going with records like the home run record all time and career. As for the black sox scandal Shoeless Joe Jackson belongs in the Hall of Fame. His stats are proof enough he was playing to win. He can also look at this era when players were getting a raw deal when it comes to their salary. The owners are as much to blame as the payer. I don't like it when anyone is putting a black eye on this game I love so well. Give me your views on this in the comments.

Pete Rose doesn't belong in the hall, and I'm glad they've kept that piece of trash out. He broke the number one rule, with a well-established punishment. You throw baseball games and you're out, and I don't believe for a second that he didn't throw games. Man lied with irrefutable truth for 30 years about his gambling on the game, he absolutely lied about more than that.

Say what you want, but after the strike in 1994, steroids brought the fans back.

The 1994 strike was completely justified. Baseball is more than a commodity played by puppets and a puppeteer for our entertainment. Yes, it is a sport, but for its players, it's their livelihood. It mimics what goes on in our lives in our own labor disputes. We as the fans, and consumers, need to realize that these players are real people, many of whom need this money to get themselves and their families out of poverty because school sets them up for prison. Guys being paid $100 million are set up for life already, and really will only have the biggest voices to rally support. The ones in the struggle are the guys barely staying in the league and making $500k a year, the guys we never talk about, where the line between sending your kids to college and being homeless is one career ending injury. Wanting nothing but baseball to be played just makes us out as entitled babies, and pits us against the very people who make the sport even possible. It's blatant support of the owners, who have proven time and time again that they will lie, cheat, steal, extort, and launder whatever they can from this game at the expense of its players and fans. So please, the next time the PA wants to strike, support them. It makes the game better.

I can't even describe how good this video is. Great great recap of the MLB scandals. The impact of steroids is #1 in my book because it clouds the accomplishments of athletes and puts doubt into fans' minds as to the legitimacy of records being set. I know the gambling scandals are bad, but Pete Rose's indiscretions are nothing compared to this. The fact that baseball commissioners have failed to re-instate him after all these years is a joke (and I'm far from being a fan of the guy). They let Mark McGwire come back as a HITTING COACH for God's sakes! What kind of a message does THAT send? A-Rod has his grip on baseball broadcasting despite him continuing to lie about his steroid use in NY. Funny to look back at all the salary collusion that took place, when you consider the outrageous salaraies being paid today. Talk about payback! OMG.
