Move over, Don Denkinger, you've got company when it comes to most controversial umpiring calls in the Fall Classic. Reactions to the call made by home-plate umpire Sam Holbrook in the seventh inning of Game 6 of the World Series were instant, and generally ranged from outrage to mystification as players, fans, and observers responded both to the call on the field and baseball's subsequent decision to uphold it.

What happened: As David Schoenfield reported from Minute Maid Park, with the Nationals leading the Astros 3-2 and a runner on first base with no outs, Trea Turner hit a little dribbler in front of pitcher Brad Peacock. Peacock's throw to first base hit Turner as first baseman Yuli Gurriel stretched for the ball and right as Turner made his final step for first base. The ball rolled away from Gurriel, and Yan Gomes reached third base while Turner went to second, but home-plate umpire Sam Holbrook called Turner out for runner interference.

The umps' ruling triggered a vehement response from the Nationals' dugout -- punctuated by Anthony Rendon hitting a two-run home run to expand the Nationals' lead to 5-2 -- ending with Nationals manager Dave Martinez getting ejected between the top half of the inning and the bottom. Martinez subsequently had to be restrained after becoming the first person ejected from a World Series game since Braves manager Bobby Cox in Game 6 in 1996.

You can't make that call in the World Series. The ball took the 1st baseman off the base...

Move over Don Denkinger. Sam Holbrook will live in infamy - the ball got to first AFTER Turner. You cannot call him out - and baseball has made this call non-reviewable pic.twitter.com/Jf6d2aq197

Dumbest rule in Major League Baseball... Absolutely no reason for that to be called. Ever. #WorldSeries2019

He wasn't within the base path. Those who don't know the rule you HAVE to run inside the 2 lines. Not sure why the review is taking so long... pic.twitter.com/SzUJTA4L70

Dave Martinez just got ejected, had to be held back from the umpires in between innings. I dont think ive ever seen him that furious

Throwing Dave out there is garbage. This is the World Series. Emotions can, should, and will run high.

Any decent umpire should turn around and walk away.

Simple.
