Buckner had 2 bad knees and shouldn't have been in the game, he could barely walk as it was, if they said the blunder was leaving him in and not putting in a defensive sub then I would agree it was top 5 or so worthy.
How about any of the hearings surrounding steriods in baseball, I'd go with rafael palmeiro swearing to a congressional committee that he never did roids, or clemens swearing he never did them.
My real answer...
- Pedro Martinez – 1999 Red Sox being LEFT OFF OF two MVP ballots both shithead beat writers for the Yankees.
After finishing 23-4 with a 2.07 ERA and 313 strikeouts, Martinez got eight first-place votes, but he was also left off a couple of ballots and finished second in the balloting to Ivan Rodriguez, who was probably the league’s fourth or fifth best position player. Martinez was even better the following year in 2000, when he went 18-6 with a 1.74 ERA, but he came in fifth that year.
