Dodgers 4 home runs in a row vs. the Padres which basically rolled us into the playoffs.

Oh man, I almost forgot about the Sox 4-in-a-row vs. the Yanks this year. That was so awesome.

worst moment of my life as a fan, but still most memorable would have to be erstad's homer in game 6 of the 02 world series. at that point i had this incredibly sinking feeling the giants just blew the world series.

sure enough...

1990 World Series. Game 1.
Bottom of the first inning, Eric Davis hit a line shot at Riverfront off of Dave Stewart. It set the tone for the series.

Especially noticeable because Eric had a huge hole in his swing. Fastballs up and in were a guaranteed strikeout. For some reason Stewart pitched him down.

I saw that one in person.

I'm not thinking about Fisk's, or Gibson's, Dent's or Carter's, but a homerun that is not a top 25 type but is particularly memorable for you.

[/ QUOTE ]

Sorry to break the rules, but I'm a Sox fan who's old enough to remember the Fisk HR. It gets my vote.

Two other Boston HR's from that season:

--Fred Lynn had a game at Tiger Stadium where he hit 3 HRs, a triple, and a single, knocking in ten runs, and tying the AL record for total bases in a game. The last HR was on the roof.

--Jim Rice became the sixth player to hit one over the flagpole in CF at Fenway, and the ball looked like it was still going UP when it disappeared into the darkness.

[/ QUOTE ]

Surprised you don't mention Bernie Carbo's blast earlier in game 6.

As a Twins Fan, I also remember the Puckett HR as my fave. But for a non-top 25 HR, Shane Mack hit a GS about 4 rows over my head in 91 (I think it was 91).

Well, being from Minnesota, Kirby Puckett's Game 6. It was an amazing game and an amazing series.

I still get chills hearing the call.

[/ QUOTE ]

I get chills every single time I hear that call. Without fail. Easily my favorite sports moment ever. "And we'll see you....tomorrow night!"

[/ QUOTE ]

Same here.

My favorite I saw live was Kubel's 12th inning walkoff grand slam last year vs. the Red Sox. I'm also always going to remember #756.
