'''Eight Men Out''' (1988) was a [[baseball]] movie about the 1919 Chicago White Sox [[gambling]] scandal, based on the book ''1963 book Eight Men Out: The Black Sox'' and the 1919 World Series (1963) by Eliot Asinof.

The movie was apparently unsuccessful financially, and has been criticized by supporters of "Shoeless" [[Joe Jackson]] for being insufficiently sympathetic to his innocence, subsequent acquittal, and victimization by a tyrannical commissioner wrongly making Jackson a high-profile scapegoat.
