The World Series is Major League Baseball’s biggest stage, where triumph shines or tragedy rears its ugly head.

On the one side, a team from its ownership on down to coaches, the 25 players on the field and its fans celebrates the rigors of the regular season and grueling playoffs. On the other side, a team has to suffer the heartbreak and agony of defeat of getting so close, yet coming up so far from their ultimate goal.

For 10 of those teams, it came down to a key blunder from one individual that either cost their team the crown, or very likely led to their fateful demise.
