Baseball Movie All-Stars: Our 10 MVPs

GEORGE ''BUCK'' WEAVER

PLAYED BY John Cusack
MOVIE Eight Men Out (1988)
POSITION Third base

TEAM The Chicago White Sox, whose 1919 lineup would be known after the scandal as the Black Sox

STATS When his team is accused of throwing the 1919 World Series, it's Weaver who most steadfastly maintains his innocence.

MALE KLEENEX FACTOR 10 out of 10 hankies (''Say it ain't so, Joe. Say it ain't so.'')
