From the Artist:
THE BLACK SOX SCANDAL
There are moments in baseball that feel distanct. And then there are moments that still feel unsettled. The 1919 World Series is one of those.
Eight members of the Chicago White Sox were accused of fixing the series. A jury layer acquitted them. Commissioner Kennesaw Mountain banned them anyway. that decision, more than the verdict reshaped the sport.
It's easy to reduce the black socks to a headline. To a morality play. Two villains and heroes. But history is rarely that tidy. Some players were clearly involved. Some were less so. Two in particular have lived in that uncomfortable middle space for more than a century… Good players, complicated circumstance, and permanent consequences.
What always struck me wasn't the courtroom, it was the dugout. Eight men in uniform, sitting together. The weight of what was coming, whether they admitted it or not. The light doesn't fall evenly. It never does.
This piece lives in that space, before the bans were announced, before the story hardened into legend. It's not trying to solve the scandal it's just acknowledging that it happened and that the game was never quite the same afterward.
Every era has its reckoning. 1919 was baseballs.

What is Pop Fly?
Pop Fly Pop Shop is an ongoing art project by Daniel Jacob Horine that started in 2020. At its core, the project features weekly limited-edition collectible art prints called “Pop Flys,” each measuring 7 x 10.5". These prints showcase sports legends and iconic moments, depicted in the vibrant, exaggerated style of comic book storytelling. Each release captures the magic of both sports and art, making Pop Flys a unique fusion of nostalgia and creativity.

What’s Included?
Each Pop Fly art print measures 7 x 10.5" and is hand-signed and numbered by the artist on the back. It comes packaged in a comic book sleeve, reminiscent of the comics you collected as a kid. Additionally, each print includes a collectible ticket, which is also produced in limited editions. These tickets are as collectible as the prints themselves, adding another layer of nostalgia and value to the overall experience. We want the feeling of opening a Pop Fly to transport you back in time to those moments of excitement and joy from childhood.

It can take a little time to get the prints but it is worth the wait
Love the art and concept! Looks fantastic on the wall. A collectors dream. Art Sports Pop culture!
Beautiful artwork! So glad I decided to get it; my first one.
Absolutely LOVE this print! The colors are so vibrant and there are so many different features within the art itself. Such a fun piece! And love the custom repacked wax, ticket, and packaging.
Incredible artwork, colors are vibrant and amazing. Love the collaborations with the athlete and the signed options look phenomenal. Very high quality and comes packaged perfectly.
I discovered Pop Fly Shop too late for Rickey in Green and Gold. This one is great since it's Rickey and really great if you're a Yankees fan. My wife and I met him at the Oakland Coliseum about 2 weeks after his HOF induction/speech. He'd played minor league ball for the A's in Modesto our then hometown. He went way out of his way to come back to talk with us, his small posse in tow and spent 5 or10 minutes talking and reminiscing. In my eyes he's always in Oakland, holding 3rd base over his head after breaking Lou Brock's record OR running wild for Billy Martin in 1980 as a young rookie.

“Every time I look at these prints, I think of my father. If artists can channel their adversity into incredible works of art that we get to enjoy, then we should challenge ourselves to turn our struggles into something that can benefit others.”
