What MLB Homerun is most memorable for "YOU"?

[benza13]

The only 3 homeruns that stand out for me from my lifetime were Boone and then Ortiz the next year in the ALDS and ALCS. All 3 are very memorable, for different reasons, LDO.

[NT!]

The first one I remember being really stoked about was Joe Carter's to win the WS, I wasn't really a Jays fan but I always liked Carter as a kid and that celebration was awesome.

Ripken's AS game HR in his final year. I don't care if it was a gift.

I saw Varitek take Rivera yard in the 2nd game of the 2005 season, top 9 to tie it, that was awesome. Then [censored] Jeter hit one off Foulke to win in the bottom half. Best HR's I've seen in person for sure.

Aaron Boone obv.

Damon's slam off Clemens in the 04 ALCS is my favorite moment from that year.

I went to Kerry Wood's first start after he had Tommy John surgery. He Homered in his first AB and Wrigley went crazy. So much hope for him back then...

Down to their last out in the ninth and trailing the Astros by six runs with nobody on base, the Pirates scored seven times against one of the best bullpens in baseball, including a climactic grand slam by ex-Buc Brian Giles off of former Astro ace Billy Wagner, for an improbable 9-8 victory in the opener of the first home day-night doubleheader in franchise history before a crowd of 32,977 in July 2001.

It really makes me sad that this is the most memorable HR of my life.

Assuming you mean off Vasquez since Roger wasn't on the '04 Yanks. Forgot about this one. That was amazing.

i was at the robin ventura grand slam single game live and it was awesome
Gibson/Carter are the two most memorable to me. Todd Pratt playoff homer is etched in my memory as well
And from a negative homerun, i STILL have nightmares about the Mike Scoscia 1988 playoff homerun off of roger mcdowell

For the record, Scioscia's homer in the 9th was off of Gooden. McDowell gave up a homer to Gibson in the 12th.

it sucked either way

Mine isn't a single HR. It's actually 4.

Mark Whiten hit 4 HR's in a single game against the Reds in 93. A friend of mine had recently gotten a job in Cincy and called me to round up the guys and come watch the Reds beat the Cardinals. A few of us piled into a car and drove the 1.5 hrs to see the Reds get beat by 1 person. The final score of the game was 15-2.

well, in his defense, they did pitch like their whole starting rotation and bullpen that game desperately trying to find a pitcher who could get somebody out.
