No picture found.

Not fair.

 

The homer off Canseco's head should at least have a chance of an upset once or twice. Just on principle, I'm voting for it.

Wait ... is this the best homer or the most undeserved homers in history?

While we're at it lets discredit every home run Babe Ruth hit to RF at Yankee Stadium because of the dimensions.

 

:plain !!!!!!

Im not saying its any less of a home run, Im just not voting for it.

THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT! THE GIANTS WIN THE PENNANT!

Bobby Thompson HR is the best, hands down. Why would you vote for the Canseco HR?

The giants win the pennant...
