July 12, 200421 yr I'll go with Kirk Gibson in the '88 series. The way he limped around the base, the "I Can't believe what I just saw" call, and Lasorda made that a memorable moement!
July 12, 200421 yr Only one home run has been titled "THe Shot Heard 'Round The World", Bobby Thompson's 1951 homer capped the greatest comeback in ML history and the most famous announcing call in ML history.
July 12, 200421 yr Author Only one home run has been titled "THe Shot Heard 'Round The World", Bobby Thompson's 1951 homer capped the greatest comeback in ML history and the most famous announcing call in ML history. 455000[/snapback] Definitely a very dramatic one. Just don't mention that to any old Brooklyn Dodgers fan. :lol
July 13, 200421 yr I'll agree with Carters... mostly because that is one I remember. Ending a World Series on a homerun is amazing. But seriously, how awesome was Sea bass' homerun?
July 13, 200421 yr But seriously, how awesome was Sea bass' homerun? 455651[/snapback] Beyond awesome.
July 13, 200421 yr Its not much, but.. Mickey Mantle, off the facade of the roof in Yankee stadium, hit with such force, the ball bounced BACK to the infield..
July 13, 200421 yr It does not get any bigger than a WALK OFF shot to win GAME 7 of the world series. With that said, we only have 1 in baseball history to choose from, so I hvae to go with Mazeroski's home run to win the 1960 World Series, which is made more incredible by the fact that Mazeroski was maybe the least likely guy on the field to hit a home run.
July 13, 200421 yr definitely not the best but Glenallen Hill's bomb at Wrigley was probably the biggest shot I have ever seen
July 13, 200421 yr I think Joe Carter's to win the WS. I watched on TV when I was a little kid and I still remember the moment.
July 13, 200421 yr Babe Ruth's "called shot". In that day, it was unbelievable just like Ruth. 456335[/snapback] i agree that must have been something awsome to see...but the kirk gibson HR i acually got to see,and it was awsome when they mixed it with the Natural movie HR...now that gives chills..
July 13, 200421 yr The called shot was the best. :rock The worst was Jeffrey F***-ing Mayer reached over the wall to give Jeter a HR and the umps were Yankee fans and called it a homerun. :banghead
July 13, 200421 yr Fisk's waving the ball fair is the most memorable. The one that accomplished the most is Carter. Whenever I think of dramatics...I think of Fisk.
