The 10 Most Tragic Mistakes In MLB HISTORY... 

I loved Buckners guest appearance on "Curb Your Enthusiasm". He gets Mookie to sign a ball for him. "He owes me a favor." Loses the ball out a window, "That was a bad throw!" And finally makes it good by catching a falling baby. Nice to see he has a sense of humor about it.

People forget that the cubs completely fell apart after that foul ball. Alex Gonzalez forgot that he owned a glove. And Dusty Baker left Prior out there to rot, which he has a long history of doing throughout his career as a manager.

It’s great to watch a compilation of plays made by someone who is aware that baseball wasn’t invented in 1980. So many compilations have no awareness of baseball history before 1980. Great video!!!

Love how there is ZERO bs and you get RIGHT to the point, refreshing!

Great job! Most of the time when I see the headline "BEST/WORST....IN HISTORY", they seem to think history began around 2000. You clearly covered all the big ones.

Really appreciate your take on the Cubs game. It's unbelievably absurd that Bartman enters into the discussion about this game, when the Cubs, a team I like, absolutely dug their own grave in the eighth. The fact that Bartman received harassments and death threats is obscene. Anyone who understands baseball one iota would have no ill will to Bartman. Maybe a mild 'hey dude" but nothing like the vitriol the he received.

Appreciate your added perspective on these plays. Too many do not recall all of the events that surrounded #4 (Gonzalez) and #2 (Buckner). Cubs had many chances to make the Bartman event a non-factor and so many forget that the Buckner game was tied already at the time of the play and there was still a game 7 to be played. As a huge baseball fan, I was embarrassed not to have known the Ruth play though. Thanks for the video.

I'm a huge Mets fan and remember game 6 well. Sure Buckner errored but Schiraldi and Stanley had already blown the game.

For as many things as you mentioned for why it wasn't all Buckner's fault, you still missed one: Stanley didn't get off the mound to cover first base, and as mentioned before, Buckner's knees were shot. While the official scorer did say "Wilson reached on E3 (Ground Ball), Knight scores/unER", the proper scoring really should've been "Wilson infield single to 1B; Knight to 3B; Knight scores on E3 (Ground Ball)/unER".

Babe Ruth was not running on his own. It was reported at the time that the batter, Meusel, called for a hit & run and then proceeded to swing & miss, What's more, Meusel had two costly misplays earlier in the game. It is Bob Meusel that should be remembered as the goat of the series.

1972 NLCS Game 5: Bob Moose's wild pitch wins the pennant for the Reds. 1992 NLCS Game 7: Randy Marsh calls a ball on a clear third strike, keeping the Braves alive for Francisco Cabrera to win it for them.

Man anytime someone mentions the 91 series the only thing I can think is "He's holding Gant's leg!"

As a Red Sox Fan since 1975 I remember game 6 of the 86 Series. I was watching it in an Airport Terminal at LaGuadia. I was flying back from FLA and was wearing my Sox Cap with my Dad (another lifelong Sox Fan) standing beside me. I remember watching Calvin Schiraldi looking like a dear in headlights. My Dad said "Get him out of there, he's doesn't want to be there". Then as Bob Stanley came out of the bullpen we both Scream "NOOOOOO" and it was then we knew it was over.

As someone who’s way into baseball history, I gotta say this is a great list and your analysis is spot on too. I appreciate you including the old time stuff even though there isn’t video.

As a Mets fan, that lose wasn't on Buckner. He shouldn't even have been on the field. Calvin fell apart. And of course the next game.....

Not "tragic" but one of the best blunders in MLB history was in 1962.. Marv Throneberry of the Mets hits what looks to be a triple.. but gets called out for missing second base. When Casey Stengal came out to argue, the Mets first base coach told him not to bother because Throneberry missed first base too!

FYI - Merkle’s action was not a “blunder”. It was standard play at the time (especially at the Polo Grounds) for runners like Merkle to not bother to advance to the next base on a walk-off hit. 2 reasons for this. First, at the Polo Grounds the clubhouses were out through the centerfield wall. Second, it was normal for the fans to storm the field after EVERY game, not just important ones. So Merkle, seeing that the game was over, did not ‘fail to touch second base’. Rather, he ran for the clubhouse - something he had likely done many times before, as had hundreds of veterans before him.

The Tigers' win over the Padres in the 1984 World Series capped one of the most dominant seasons ever. Detroit won 19 of its first 21 games that year and never looked back. And RIP Vin Scully, who had the call on Gibson's HR over Gossage.

Cubs fans blaming Bartman is a travesty

Corrections: The Marlins Cubs NLCS was 2003, not 2005.. also apparently I accidentally said Jose Cabrera instead of Miguel Cabrera.. that is a stupid slip up; I know who Miggy is.. one of my favorites of all time. My bad.

I can't help but smile everytime I see Sparky saying "Hey don't wanna walk you!!" It's like even Sparky knew it was a foolish move to pitch to Gibson there!!

3:28 What's ironic there is that Gibson faced this same situation in the 2011 NLDS. Game 1, 8th inning, Brewers lead DBacks 2-1, Braun just doubled and Prince Fielder up with first base open, 1 out. Gibson let Ian Kennedy pitch to Fielder, and after strike 1, where Prince smiled in disbelief that he was being pitched to, then hit a 2-run homer on the next pitch, and the Brewers won 4-1.

Very well done! As a Cubs fan, I agree 100% that Alex Gonzalez should have been the goat not Steve Bartman! I also agree that Moisés Alou baby tantrum changed the tone of the game very quickly!

How about in 2002, game six: Dusty Baker hands Russ Ortiz the World Series game ball, with 5 outs yet to record for the win. That arrogant move of premature celebration apparently fired up the Angels dugout, who staged an amazing comeback. As a Giants fan, it was literally one one of the worst nights of my life. Everyone knew there was no way SF was winning game 7.

The “Bartman” game was in ‘03 , I think you said’05, I mean you did say 2005 NL championship. Mistakes happen but we don’t see the playoffs much here on the North side so we have to get it right.

Excellent video, and I really hope that with what we know now in 2022 there's not people still mad at Bartman. Honorable mention: Game 5 of the 2015 ALDS, the Rangers leading the Blue Jays in the bottom of the 7th inning with no outs, but then proceeded to commit THREE CONSECUTIVE ERRORS that loaded the bases, leading to five runs, including the most famous bat flip in postseason history

Thing about the Gonzales error, he was one of the best defensive shortstops in the NL that year. I recall they had posted a graphic about his low error rate or high number of plays since making an error a short time before the error. I remember watching that game as a Cub fan and it wasn't Batman it was this play. The next day at school all the kids were talking about Bartman, and I just said it wasn't Bartman that dropped the double play ball.

One of the most overlooked gaffes. In the 1968 WS game five Lou Brock tried to bowl over All Star catcher Bill Freehan at the plate Freehan played tight end for the U of M. .St.Louis was up 3-1 in the series were ahead in this game and Detroit was just hanging on.Him being thrown out totally changed the series and Detroit won it. The Cards never were the same not making the post season for 14 years.

Don't forget that Steve Bartman had to go into witness protection and move away after death threats were sent in the aftermath of the Cubs' collapse.

OMG THANK YOU for blaming the Cubs and NOT Bartman. So ridiculous that he gets blamed. It was 3-0 with 1 out and the Cubs gave up 8 friggin runs FGS.

One of the funniest bloopers was from Jose Canseco’s head on May 26, 1993 causing a home run. Now that’s a blooper.

Others have said it, but thank you for setting the record straight about the Bartman game.

I'm surprised that umpire Don Denkinger's blown call at first base in Game 6 of the 1985 World Series between Kansas City and St. Louis wasn't at the very least, an honorable mention.

Wow..some awesome baseball memories here. Thanks for posting!

They did a documentary on the Buckner play in the WS. He saw and set up on the ground ball correctly, it was cold that night and the clay has harder than usual and it slightly changed the trajectory of the ball. It was played in super slo-mo and it was a great documentary

Despite Buckner's and Gonzalez' blunders, those games weren't the last ones. BOTH teams had another game to make things right. Buckner later said that he had an older glove (for reason's unknown) and that it would flop open and closed against his will. On the WIlson play, he reached down and it flopped closed. And I guess Nelson Cruz' inability to catch David Friese's ball is merely honorable mention. Of course the Rangers, too, had one more game to make things right.

There's arguably an ever bigger mistake committed in the same inning as the more famous Snodgrass Muff. With one out and runners on the corners, Tris Speaker lifted a pop fly into foul territory, easily catchable for the first baseman (none other than Fred Merkle himself!) -- except Christy Mathewson called for catcher Chief Meyers to take it. The ball fell to the ground untouched; Speaker, reprieved, singled in the tying run; and the eventual walk-off winning run scored on a sacrifice fly -- i.e., what would have been the third out had the foul ball been caught.

babe trying to steal 2nd makes me so mad as a yankee fan yet it’s so hilarious he tried to take off for 2nd knowing he’s not the best base runner lmao

As a Padres fan, I also think of Durham right through his legs game 5 1984 NLCS. And I would never blame Buckner. He was a solid player and he had a pretty good series in 86.

So many videos of this type limit their examples to the broadcast era so that highlights can be shown. Thank you for considering all of baseball history.

#1 the Cubs curse was never called the Merkle Curse. If anything that should have cursed the Giants franchise. The Cubs merely made a resourceful play amidst chaos and it led to them snatching a pennant from defeat. The Cubs drought was always referred to as the curse of the Billy Goat because of the goat that got banned from Wrigley during game 4 of the 1945 World Series, which was their last pennant for 71 years.

I have always felt it was the awful play of the cubs that was to blame for that game. Yet a loyal fan who does what the majority of most fans do in that situation. Even more surprising was that media outlets didn’t focus on this fact either. That never would have happened in St. Louis. Great job out of you.

I watched a documentary on the 90s Braves and they were loaded. It was such a shame they only got one World Series. Loaded team just got unlucky.

The Pierszynski play always brings a smile to my face (I'm a White Sox fan, obviously).

As a Nats fan my favorite is, of course, the first one. But you cut off the video before the best part. Never having won a playoff series of any kind since 1924, the Washington fans went nuts. My favorite line from the game was when the announcer said - "Juan Soto is out at second - but, you know what - nobody in this joint cares!!" I was in Boston on Business and watching the Red Sox/Mets Buckner game in my hotel room when the error happened. It was about midnight and very quiet - until the error. You could hear the reaction all over the hotel. And in the morning when I went into work - it was like a funeral. From extreme excitement the day before - to total silence and the people were walking around like zombies. I really felt for them.

What about Leon Durham's error in Game 5 of the 1984 NLCS against San Diego? He was Billy Buck two years prior. Or Tony Fernandez's error in Game 7 of the 1997 World Series?

Who would think that something as simple as a decoy throw to second base would still be talked about thirty years after the fact. In baseball, sometimes it’s the little things that make a huge difference.

Dishonorable mention, Barry Bonds not moving in when Andy Van Slyke signaled him to do so in game 7 of the 1992 NLCS.

Strange that you did not even mention the name of the HOF "relief pitcher" in the 26 WS: Grover Cleveland Alexander. This game is better known for his strikeout of Tony Lazzeri to end the bottom of the 8th inning. He had pitched a complete game victory the day before, and was sleeping in the bullpen when called on to relieve with 2 out in the 8th. Ruth said he stole because Alexander was pitching so well, he thought he better get in scoring position.

Great job again! Regardless of whether or not Lake caught the 3rd strike on Perzinski, that goes down as one of the most heads up plays in baseball history! Never give up!

To date, the 1926 World Series is the only postseason series to conclude on a caught stealing.

I’ll never forget Lonnie Smith’s base running gaffe.. 7th game of the World Series no less.. Smith was a bit of a World Series hero earlier in his career too..

With the Pirates up 2-0 over the Braves in the bottom of the ninth of the 1992 NLCS, Gold Glove 2B Jose "Chico" Lind of the Pirates kicks a routine grounder. If he makes that play, the Pirates likely win the game and go to the World Series. HUGE error

Thank you narrator for not using one single profane curse word during your narration. Because of that, I subscribed! Great job! Poor Bill Buckner, he didn't deserve that, he was actually a very good hitter.

You're right about that Buckner play, about the bullpen collapsing and that Buckner shouldn't have been in the game at that point. When they played game 7 the next day, the Red Sox were flat because how they lost the night before demoralized them. The sad part is that all Bill Buckner is remembered for is that one play and not his long storied career. He had over 2700 career hits and over 1200 RBI.

Excellent video about many instances I knew nothing about. Thanks.

I'm the biggest Mets fan. But I have to say - I REALLY felt bad for Bill Buckner. How could you not ?

I still don’t understand why Cleveland’s 3rd base coach held up Kenny Lofton at 3rd base in game 7 of the 2007 ALCS.

Awesome production. I personally would rank Lonnie Smith's base-running blunder in '91 at or near the top, but... puh-TAY-toe/puh-TAH-toe. An interesting tidbit regarding Ruth's ill-fated stolen base attempt to end the '26 World Series is that, throughout the entire Series, the Yankees had stolen only 1 base vs St. Louis. And that was by Ruth in the previous game. Trailing 4-1 in the bottom of the 6th with 1 out in Game 6, Ruth stole 2nd off righty Pete Alexander. Fast-forward to the bottom of the 9th of Game 7, and Alexander, who'd shut the Yankees down all Series, was pitching again 1 day later, this time in relief. And he was shutting the Yankees down again. Meusel had had the most success vs Alexander out of all the Yankees hitters, with a single, double, triple & walk, but Ruth wasn't in scoring position. Ruth's success the previous day in stealing off of Alexander probably emboldened him to try it again in order to get into scoring position for Meusel. I'm not so sure it was such a terrible thing by Ruth. Strategically, I think Ruth had the right idea, much like Dave Roberts vs Mariano Rivera in the 2004 ALCS. I have to wonder, though, if Yankees manager Miller Huggins gave any consideration to using the only possible stolen base threat on his bench, utility infielder Aaron Ward, who had 30 career stolen bases to his credit at that point, as a pinch runner, assuming he was faster than Ruth? The only problem with that, though, is that Ruth was actually a better base-stealer than Ward. Ruth was 85-of-164 (51.8% success) in his career at that point, while Ward was only 30-of-63 (47.6% success).

As a Mets fan let's stop blaming Buckner. Even he fielded the ball, Mookie would've been safe at first, maybe out at second, but the best outcome for the Sox the game remains tied. Red Sox fans did Bill dirty.

Another tragic mistake would be the giants not trading Rodon this deadline

I do not believe Lonnie Smith was fooled by the 2B & SS, as he made no inclination of sliding but rounded second. Though possibly a distraction, the real issues for Smith were: #1) It was a hit and run, so he did not see the ball off the bat nor could see where it was until it was too late. #2) He was thrown out at home in game 4 on a similar play, and he did not want a repeat of that. #3) CF Kirby Puckett had made a tremendous catch in game 6, so Smith had to respect his ability to go back on balls. At third with no outs and the heart of the order up, the Braves still should have been able to get him in.

One of the oldest and classic miscalculations in Major League history may go back to October 3, 1951 in the Polo Grounds. Prior to Bobby Thompsons' famous or infamous ( depending on allegiance) "Shot Heard 'Round the World", Brooklyn manager Charlie Dressen had a choice of replacing his gassed starter, Don Newcombe, with either Ralph Branca or Carl Erskine in relief. He went with Branca which proved to be a dubious decision whether or not Thompson had the sign and the rest is history. When the Giants and Dodgers bolted New York City for California most sports fans in New York discarded what should be known as the most famous moment in New York sports history. Great job Humm Baby. I love this stuff.

This was very well put together. As a Massachusetts native I would’ve sworn Buckner was number one and he was close! But you set it up correctly

Crazy the exact thing that Merkle did happened my senior year in the district finals. Our pitcher was on first and didn't run on a game winning hit in bottom of 7th. We won in extras so no harm no foul. Great video

The one that stood of to me the most was #2 Billy Buckner When Billy played with the Dodgers I went to my very first game. It cost $2 bucks in the 70's to sit in the home run pavilion. I had brought my glove with me. Billy was up and hit this screaming line drive home run and I remember standing up on my seat and the ball went into the deep part of my web throwing me back two rolls. All the Latinos around me picked me up and I was covered with beer from head to toe. They were all tapping the top of my head and I just stared at the ball in disbelief. Some of the fans offered me money for it but I just looked at and held it close. That night and that game my blood turn blue and I have been a fan of the Dodgers since..48 years. Buckner became my hero at 12 years of age. Once, I had seen him catch a fly ball out in left field at the warning track and he threw it from then warning track to home plate without a bounce. He had a gun in his early years. That night he missed that ground ball at first in 86 broke my heart. I had read that because of that play he almost committed suicide over it. He still to this day is a hero of mine. He was a aggressive good ballplayer. .

I think the Ruth one could easily be #1 or at least #2. The fact that he was a star, the fact that it wasn't an accident (like Grisham or Buckner's), the fact that it literally gave away the WS

I enjoyed your video. Lifetime NYM fan, and I was actually watching Game 6 live in 1986. I assert that Mookie's AB was the greatest AB in Mets history, despite it ending in a slow tapper to 1B. Just about every detail has been well stated by you and everyone else. But there's one factor about which I have never seen anyone comment. Either it was extreme baseball sense or pure luck, but the way Mookie flipped out of the way of Stanley's wild pitch was, as Casey S. would say, simply "Amazing". If the pitch had hit Mookie, the bases would have been loaded, but the Mets would have still been behind 5-4, and who knows what on-deck hitter Howard Johnson would have done The fact that Mookie got out of the way allowed Kevin Mitchell to score the tying run, and moved Ray Knight to 2B where he easily scored on Buckner's error. To quote the late Vin Scully: *_Behind the bag!!_*

The Bartman play was insane Even in an empty stadium, that'a really tough play for Alou to make Cubs blew it

I dont know if I would call the '91 series between the Twins and Braves so much a base running error as much as it was an incredibly smart fake toss to 2nd by Knoblauch to slow/confuse the runner.....that was one of the best plays I have ever witnessed...

Great video. The Merkle thing I've always thought was unfair to him, you can't just grab a random baseball after the game is over and run over and touch second base. As I've said before it's usually the umpires that blow it. Really iconic stuff in here, the Sparky Anderson smile at 3:30, the Bartman, the Buckner...the Alex Gonzalez error is probably the most overlooked mistake by a player ever

8:48 You mention a player buy the name of "Jose Cabrera" I believe that was Marlin's rookie outfielder and future Triple Crown winner Miguel Cabrera. Other than that, great vid.

Here's one that happened during the 1985 NLCS. Dodgers pitcher Tom Niedenfuer who gave up the famous walk off home run to Cardinals shortstop Ozzie Smith in Game 5. Then in the top of the Ninth in Game 6 with the Cardinals up Three games to two Niedenfuer chooses not to intentionally walk Jack Clark who was the only power hitter in the Cardinals lineup. Clark crushes the first pitch he sees for a three run tape measure home run that put the Cardinals ahead to stay to send the Cardinals to the 1985 World Series.

Glad you didn't put Buckner #1, he was an unfortunate victim of bad decisions compounded by bad luck. I'd have put the Cubs #3, another case of bad decisions compounded by bad luck. Excellence as always, Erik

The Merkle Curse??? What the hell is that? Everyone knows that it was the "Curse of the Goat" that prevented the Cubs from winning a World Series.

Good stories. As a Phillies fan, the biggest blunder in my lifetime came in game 3 of the 1977 NLCS. Like the Red Sox in 1986, the Phils led by 2 in the top of the 9th with their closer Gene Garber on the mound. Usually Danny Ozark would substitute Jerry Martin in left field for Greg Luzinski for defensive purposes but for some reason he didn't. But the Phils got 2 quick outs when Vic Davalillo legged out a bunt. The Manny Mota hits a golf shot to deep left field and it looked like Luzinski had a bead on it but as he caught it, he hit the wall and the ball popped loose. Davalillo scored and to make matter worse, Luzinski's throw gets away from Ted Seizmore and Mota takes 3rd. Then Davy Lopes hits a smash off of Mike Schmidt that deflects to Larry Bowa who seemed to just get Lopes at first but the ump calls him safe(2nd missed call by an ump that game that allowed the Dodgers to score a run) and Mota scores the tying run. Then in a pickoff attempt Garber throws wildly which allowed Lopes to take 2nd then Bill Russell singles home Lopes for the go ahead run. The Phils go down in the 9th to lose 6-5 in a game Phillies fans call Black Friday. The Dodgers would win game 4 in a steady rain 4-1 to win the pennant. Had Ozark put Martin in and he caught that fly ball, the Phils would have won 5-3 and taken a 2-1 series lead with games 4 and 5 in Philadelphia so who knows what would have happened had they won game 3.

Bartman was one of many fans who tried to catch the ball! People don’t want to talk about that and how he got death threats from Cubs fans for catching it because Alou got mad at him! Proof that sports fans take it too seriously!

I'm a Tigers fan and I would say a far more enormous blunder was the 1968 World Series Curt Flood of the Cardinals lost his footing in the outfield that allowed Jim Northrup to get a triple in game 7 to help the Tigers win the WS after being down in the series 3 games to 1. Goose Gossage's home run to Kirk Gibson while a famed play, the Tigers were on their way to winning that WS in five games even without Gibson's home run.

Lonnie didn’t get deeked. If he thought it were a ground ball he would have slid into second base to break up a double play. He simply lost the ball in the white dome top and didn’t know if the OFers were going to catch it or not. Remember there was a delayed steal attempt on the pitch… Lonnie was in motion

Great video. Lots of moments I never knew of instead of the same old stuff.

This is what a "goat" in sports originally meant.

You failed to mention how Kent Hrbek clearly pushed Ron Gant off of first base and tagged him out!

I have never heard it called the Merkle curse.

The walk off wild pitch for the Yankees to win the World Series in 27 over pitts is never talked about. I mean it was a sweep so that’s probably why but still… very odd way to end a World Series.

Brezinski, being a catcher, undoubtedly, knew the rule that’s third strike must be caught in the glove, i.e., it cannot hit the ground or be trapped in the catcher’s glove. The ball in the video hit the ground and was trapped by the catcher who failed to either tag the runner or throw the ball to first for the putout. Heads up play by the hitter, Brezinski! ✌️✌️✌️✌️ “The dropped, or “uncaught”, third strike rule in baseball is when a hitter strikes out, but the catcher fails to catch the pitch in the air. If the ball hits the ground on a third strike, the hitter is permitted to run to first base. This rule can only occur when there are two outs OR when there are less than two out, and first base is unoccupied by a baserunner.”

#10 - Who would have thought the 3 people involved in that play are now on the same team? Grisham, Hader, and Soto are all on the Padres now. Go figure. #8 - If it wasn't for the Padres blowing a couple of leads in the 1998 World Series, I would still be salty about this one. Looks like Gibson gave Goose a lesson in humility that time.

fascinating stuff, loved watching this! I don't know that 'boner' was the most accurate description here though, I was expecting something very different from that play....

Gossage had struck Gibby out with three straight pitches for Gibson's first major league at bat. Goose thought he was still facing a greenhorn, fresh up from the minors... ( :

The saddest thing about the Alex Gonzales error is that all season long he was actually a very very solid defensive shortstop. He was in the lineup for his glove, not his bat. As a long suffering Cubs fan I was watching that game on TV and didn't even really think about Bartman until much later.

I played as a first grader up into Collegiate Leagues and as a guy that fielded well I made my share of Errors fly balls, dropped and errant throws but missing a Ground ball in the outfield was the worst for me. It only happened a few times but it seemed worse and lonely as you had to chase the ball then face everyone! 😓…🤣😂 I’m glad that 💩 is over!

Some will remember you for being the all-time leader in home runs (if they choose to do so). Some will remember you for putting up god-like numbers past your early thirty’s, some will remember you as being “the all-time home run king and winning only one pennant and world championships in your almost 20-plus year career. Yet everyone remembers you as a guy who took steroids, and everyone knows you as a guy who still isn’t in the Baseball Hall of Fame

Great video, thanks!

Come on, now. The first baseman who ran the batter back to home is the biggest brain cramp ever. Btw, Mookie said Buckner was afraid Mookie would have beaten him to the bag. I think he’s right!

I agree with your analysis on the Buckner play. People seem to forget the game was already tied at this point. Even if Buckner fields the grounder cleanly I seriously wonder if he beats Wilson to first. Also, if Buckner does make the play and Wilson is retired, why does everyone seem to just assume Boston will win the game in extra innings? Never understood that point of view.

Ruth said after the game that the Yankees hadn't been able to hit Pete Alexander the previous day, and thought he better do something unexpected. Perhaps he forgot Meusel had hit Alexander, but the Babe loved drama. I thought of this in 2014 when Alex Gordon held up at third instead of barrelling home for what would have been, at worst, the most dramatic ending to a WS ever, and at best getting a tie and perhaps a win.

Armando Galarraga’s perfect game spoiled by Umpire Jim Joyce in 2010 should be high on this list.

very well done video

It was great seeing the Cubs win the World Series but I'm still pissed off at Dusty Baker for what he didn't do in the playoff game against the Marlins

I have nothing but admiration for Steve Bartman. He could have made a ton of money through interviews after that game. And had every right to after the rotten way Cubs fans treated him. He did what every other fan would have done had they been sitting there. But he stuck to his principles and faded into obscurity. And Alex Gonzalez should send Bartman a nice Christmas present every year. He would be the most notorious man in Chicago history, up with Al Capone and Mrs. O'Leary's cow if not for Bartman

Josh Hamilton with the Texas Rangers in 2012, October 3rd against the A’s. That was horrible.
