They had been reduced from the
status of worlds champions to a

brief interval of five years by
Harry Frazee's transactions with
the New York Yankees. Such men

Smith and others were traded or
sold to the Yankees, who gave little
except money in return.
In brief, Frazee sold the worlds
championship, from Boston to New

thing that was not nailed down, he
sold the franchise to syndicate
