I don't mean to get all anally retentive and picky, but this has nothing to do with Sauron. Sauron's experiments with crossing Man and Orc were 'successful' in creating the Uruk-Hai.

It shows that Saruman was a lot less powerful than he thought he was because his experiments largely failed.

I still don't get it though, I never thought that Orcs reproduced sexually, isn't it something to do with coming out of the ground?
