  5. Mario Mendoza, baseball player

He was actually a decent defensive shortstop, as evidenced by his eight-season MLB career, but when your name and career batting average (.200, the “Mendoza Line”) become the nickname for the threshold of terrible hitting, that pretty much sums up “famously horrible.”

  9. Bob Uecker, baseball player
    In 1967, despite playing only 59 games, he led the league in passed balls and is still on the top 10 list for most passed balls in a season. But to be fair, at least a partial explanation is that he spent a good deal of the season catching knuckleballer Phil Niekro.

Fairly skilled as a politician, though, which is why he kept getting back into power despite losing so many battles.
