The most memorable HR of all time
While listening to a history of baseball podcast, I became curious about something. What is the most memorable home run the game has ever seen? I'm certain answers will vary; however, would be interested in reading your opinions.
For me, it's Gibson's World Series Game 1 pinch-hit blast beat the A's. It probably "ranks" lower than Ruth's called shot, Aaron's 715, or Fisk's Game 6 classic. However, I saw it unfold (on TV) in real time when I was a teenager. By that point, I could fully understand the magnitude of the moment...and I absolutely did believe what I just saw.
