Book Description:
When Joe Stoshack hears about Shoeless Joe Jackson -- and the gambling scandal that destroyed the star player's career -- he knows what he has to do. If he travels back in time with a 1919 baseball card in his hand, he just might be able to prevent the infamous Black Sox Scandal from ever taking place. And if he could do that, Shoeless Joe Jackson would finally take his rightful place in the Baseball Hall of Fame.

But can Stosh prevent that tempting envelope full of money from making its way to Shoeless Joe's hotel room before the big game?

From my 10 year old:
I liked it because I like baseball. I learned how the other members of the White Sox lost the 1919 World Series on purpose to make money by gambling even though Shoeless Joe played to win. The time travel part of the book was interesting, too.
