What made this call so bad was that it was the third called strike of a six pitch at bat where no single pitch even came close to the strike zone. Rays Manager, Joe Maddon said in his post game presser "That can't happen in a Major League Game." Unfortunately, the Rays had to beat the 26th man on the Roster and he's a ringer...
This prompted me to consider the MLB worst calls of all time. Here are a few of my favorite bad calls:
Welcome to Joe Maddon's "These Can't Happen in a Major League Game" Hall of Shame
Posada Cano both occupy third base, but only one is out!
In the ALCS 2009, Mike Napoli single handedly pulled off a double play by catching Cano and Posada at third base...or so he thought. The Yanks, as usual, get away with one!
Jerry Meals to the rescue!
Who can forget this amazing use of the eyeballs??? Remember folks, he's SAFE! This gem ended a 19 inning marathon and left a black eye on the athletic efforts of both teams.Bull Durham - The Cocksucking Call
I don't even care if it's on the big screen. This call just plain cock-sucks!
