This Just In: Worst Call in Baseball History (Video)

Umpire Makes Bad Call To End Game Early, Just Wanted To Hit The Hay – Braves 4, Pirates 3 in 19 Inning Game

It was the longest game of the season, and the longest game for the Buccos since 1979. If you think a regular game of baseball is boring, this one would have made you want to plank on on a bed of poison ivy for a thrill – or something like that.

The Pirates lost, but they shouldn’t have. At least not if that call was the determining factor of the game. Big shout-out to the ump (Jerry Meals) who just made the worst call in the history of baseball.

An alternative headline could read: Umpire Makes Bad Call To End Game Early, Pissed Off About Not Getting Paid Overtime For 19 Inning Game

What was the score?
Braves 4 – Pirates 3

How many innings?
19 but almost 20

What time did it end?
At about 2am

    After all those empty innings this is the outcome? Ridiculous!

    What. The. Fuck!

    I’m glad, when I type in a google search for “worst calls in baseball history”, that this already comes up on page 1. While not the #1 in my book, it would be a close second.
    (Detroit’s non-perfect/perfect game from last year is #1)

    The runner KNEW he was out! Did you see how shocked he was when he was called safe? Damn…

      According to his post game interview he “Knew [he] was safe”. No he didn’t… Watch his body language. He was ready to walk back to the dug out with his head down.

    McKenry tagged him TWICE: leg then arm. WTF Meals??!! You deserve to be fired. Immediately.

    • Best412

      Not only did he tag him twice, they collided!

  • Steve

    WTF HES A FUCKING RETARDED HOE BAG HE WANTED TO GIVE THAT TO THEM HE SAW IT AND CALLED IT A TOUCHDOWN ((i know what baseball and football is ive played both for 2 years or more)
    SERIOUSLY NOBODY WOULD MAKE A CALL LIKE THAT UNLESS THEY HAVE MENTAL ISSUES GET A GRIP ON LIFE YOU F****T

    Here’s another angle…

  • MorganPIT

    People are saying really disgusting things about this man. It’s a baseball game, go get yourself a couple of hoagies and chill the fuck out. Just because you watch sports doesn’t mean you have to become a douchebag when “your team” loses.

  • Hector

    At least Hurdle showed some balls getting all up in his grill like that.

  • Joe McCunty

    WORST CALL EVER

  • peace up

    ayo pirates suck and you were going to lose the game anyway.
