The 1952 WS. Al Barlick, a very respected ump, was at 1B. Johnny Sain, the Yankees pitcher, hit grounder to Short.
The photo in the next morning's NYDN showed Sain's foot on the base.
Gil Hodges was stretching for the throw., and the ball was at least 6 feet from Gil's glove.
And Barlick, with an unobstructed view of the play, had his arm raised in a clear call of OUT!!
I don't think Barlick ever got over the infamy.
One I was actually thrilled with. We agonized in the 1985 season as the St Louis Cardinals were faultless to nose out the 98-64 Mets.
St Louis gets to the World Series, and in game 6, on the play that would have won them the WS, the ump called a guy safe at first when he was out by 18 inches.
Kansas Citywon that game 6 after that unbelievable blown call, and also game 7.
Dodgers' third base coach call to send both runners home against the Mets.

Bartick boo boo
Gus, funny. In Wrights first career game that I saw, in his 3rd game, vs Smoltz, he got punched out on a pitch clearly out of the strike zone. “Sit down, rook” call by the ump. I think it ended the game as a save for Smoltz.
Here is the video of that blown call that would have won the World Series for the 1985 Cards:

Every bad call I remember was made by a guy named Harvey
How about that pitcher on the Tigers, Galaragga, losing a perfect game when Jim Joyce blew a play at first with the pitcher covering, and then wouldn’t ask for help? I’m sorry, but that was a pure a-hole move, not even asking for help afterwards. What a loser move.
That Galarraga call was SO BAD.
How did we get through this whole thread without a single reference to Angel Hernandez?
