VIDEO: Umpire Jim Wolf Makes Garbage Strike 3 Call on Carlos Correa and Astros Fans Should Be Livid
By Ryan Flores
Umpires aren't perfect. Like all people, they're bound to make mistakes from time to time. However, you have to be as close to flawless as you possibly can in the World Series to call a fair game. Home plate umpire Jim Wolf clearly didn't get the memo, as he called a downright unfair strike three on Carlos Correa in a situation where the Astros absolutely needed a baserunner.

The ball was clearly out of the zone, yet Wolf decided to punch out Correa. Houston Astros fans have to be infuriated with this one. You just can't make that call in Game 7.
