The MLB's most undisputed worst call ever

But Dud Selig gets off on junk like this, the sick bastard.  The stupid human element.  The computer has no bias, PEOPLE DO  >:(  If you got it, USE IT!  Instant Replay.  At least discipline or FIRE the umpires on their bullshit calls or personal grudges[roberto alomar] & their favoritism[cheating for the Yankees]

This call takes the cake & there been times where the umpires should be 4ced 2 wear glasses.  Others can mention other garbage mlb calls you've seen in your life.

And I hate the Tigers, but that was so wrong.
The 3rd strike called a ball in game 1 1998 world series, then a 3 run home run happened after that.

1985 game 6 world series, game 7 shoulda never been played.  Doug Dekkinger [don't know how its really spelled] cost the cardinals a championship.  I'm glad the Royals won one but it should never happen this way.  Yes the redbirds won another WS 21 years later but still.
1992 world series when the umps wanted the Braves to beat the Blue Jays but the Braves still lost.  Especially 1 play where Jays player tagged Deion out but when he slid to a base the umps still called him safe :o

2007 when the Rockies player was out at the plate, the umps still called him safe & the Rockies got in the playoffs.  Not the Madres.

1999 ALCS when the umps stole 2 games from the Red Sox, 1 time in NY & the other in game 4 or 6 where red sox nation rioted.

2008 in Shea Stadium when a ball was way outside, ump still called strike 3 on Manny.  Can't stand Manny but bullshit.

WTF? :o

Javier:
There are talks that an extra umpire could be added to specifically just look at replays.  I guess that's not a bad idea.  As long as they're able to communicate quickly with the umpires on the field. 

Chamillitary Click:
We don't need instant replay, we just need harsher penalty for blown calls of this proportion.

Like, you kidding me? It's obvious this umpire was like "Oh, no fucking way am I staying here longer...SAFE".

I remember Joe West said that games were taking "too long". Umpires get paid nearly 300,000 dollars a season to do something I'm sure any fan of sports would do & they're seriously bitching? STFU. I'll do that job for a quarter of the price & probably twice as good.

Honestly, is there an easier job on the planet than being an umpire?

Even with harsher penalties, errors will still exist because they're human.
