Summary

With five outs remaining in Game 6 of the 2003 National League Championship Series, a foul ball descended from the cold Chicago sky. As a flurry of hands reached for the ball, it was fatefully tipped away from the outstretched glove of outfielder Moises Alou, and Steve Bartman instantly became the focus of rage for long-suffering Cubs fans everywhere. Academy-Award-winner Alex Gibney explores the phenomenon of scapegoating through the lenses of two infamous moments in sports history: Bartman's ill-fated incident and Boston Red Sox first baseman, Bill Buckner's fateful error.
