"The Worst Call Ever!"

The Worst Call Ever! The Most Infamous Calls Ever Blown by Referees, Umpires, and Other Blind Officials is a book by Kyle Garlett and Patrick O'Neal. If you have ever questioned an umpire or a referee's vision, intelligence, or integrity, this is a must read. You will find a pantheon of blown and missed calls from all corners of the sports world. Many of these calls had direct impact on national and world titles. It is a great read.

The one exception I take to this book is that Kent Hrbek did not pull Ron Gant off the base in the 1991 World Series, and therefore was no a blown call. For your view pleasure following is a video evidence to support that.
