Fred Merkle was on the NY Giants. They played the Cubs in late September of 1908. On a game winning hit (there were runners on 1st & 3rd or the bases were loaded) with 2 outs he failed to touch 2nd base. Johnny Evers of the Cubs appealed at 2nd nullifying the run. By this time the field was overrun with fans and the game ended in a tie! The Cubs and Giants ended up tied at the end of the season forcing a playoff game for the pennant.
