Though Chicago Cubs fan Steve Bartman bore the brunt of the criticism, the team had themselves to blame for imploding against the Florida Marlins in the 2003 National League Championship Series. Bartman prevented Cubs outfielder Moises Alou from making a tough catch on a foul ball with Chicago up 3-0 in Game 6, one inning away from going to the World Series. The Cubs instead surrendered eight runs in the eighth inning to lose, then blew a two-run lead to fall in Game 7.
