Black Sox Commit three errors and lose game 5

On October 6, 1919, the Chicago White Sox committed three errors in losing the fifth game of the World Series to the Cincinnati Reds. After a Sunday rainout‚ Hod Eller blanks the Sox on 3 hits‚ fanning 6 in a row-Gandil‚ Risberg‚ Ray Schalk‚ Williams‚ Leibold‚ and Eddie Collins-in the 2nd and 3rd. Once again a big inning gives the Reds a victory. A couple of hits‚ some slow fielding‚ and poor throws by Jackson and Happy Felsch result in 4 Reds scoring in the 6th for a 5-0 win‚ their 4th in 5 games. Lefty Williams is the loser. White Sox Catcher Schalk is the 2nd man to be thrown out of a World Series game when he disagrees with the call on Heinie Groh’s slide at home.
