Question 12

As an umpire, which former Cincinnati Reds pitcher contributed to their 1970 World Series loss to the Baltimore Orioles? He called Bernie Carbo out at home in the sixth inning of Game 1, when replays show that Baltimore catcher Elroy Hendricks had the ball in his throwing hand, not the glove he used to tag Carbo. The Orioles went on to beat the Cincinnati Reds 4-3 and win the Series in five games.
