Oct. 26, 1985: The day Don Denkinger robbed the Cardinals blind

Editor's note: on Oct. 26, 1985 — umpire Don Denkinger made a call during Game 6 of the World Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and Kansas City Royals that lives in infamy. This column originally was published in the Post-Dispatch on Oct. 27, 1985.

KANSAS CITY - It is not known what Don Denkinger plans to do with his day today, before he goes to work tonight. The weather is supposed to be nice, so perhaps Denkinger can drive north from Kansas City to the little Clay County town of Liberty.
