Let's replay the inning if Orta is correctly called out:
Orta - Out
Balboni - Single, pinch runner
Sandberg - sacrifice still likely. Two outs, runner at 2nd.
Pinch hitter - McRae - likely still walked (passed ball probably never happens) to set up a force at any bag and work around a more dangerous hitter.
Iorg - bloop single to RF still ties the game.
AT BEST for the Cardinals... It's a tie game.

You know, I wasn't alive during the '85 WS and I never really fully investigated that 9th inning until just now. The Card's didn't get nearly as screwed over as the Card's fans that I know have always made it out to me.
**** those guys.
