Default Re: What MLB Homerun is most memorable for \"YOU\"?

Final day of the 1998 season, Cubs, Mets & Giants are all tied for the Wild Card. Mets have already lost in Atlanta. The Cubs blow a 3-1 8th inning lead and lose in 11 in Houston.

The Giants and Rockies are tied in the bottom of the 9th in Colorado. Robb Nenn, who was nasty that year, is pitching for San Fran and Bonds & Jeff Kent are due up in the San Fran 10th.

It appears the Cubs' season is ending like many before it. Less than 5 minutes after Carl Everett crosses the plate in Houston, Neifi Perez leads off the 9th and blasts the 2nd pitch from Robb Nen over the RF wall. The next day Cubs-Giants play a 1 game playoff at Wrigley which I sat about 20 rows up from the Giants dugout.

Sosa's 2 run, 2 out game-tying HR in the bottom of the 9th in game 1 of the 2003 NLCS is a close second. However, that game and series have too many bad memories.
