Joe Carter's complaining his HR to win the WS ain't getting enough respect

Can't be beaten ...

 

ROSS OHLENDORF WILL LEAD THEM TO THE PROMISED LAND, DAMMIT!!!

 

Trey, you're gonna be pissed when John VanBenschoten (sp?) becomes a star for the ChiSox.

 

For about a year or so, I thought the same thing about Kip Wells, aka Mr. Nibbles.

 

I don't even know Van Helsing made the team. I just saw him during a spring game and remembered him as the Pirates' top pick from my days in Bradenton.

 

Sheeit jeter's homer doesn't even crack the top five of all-time Yankees playoff homers.

 

Since I don't remember Jeter's homer, I agree.

 

IIRC, it was almost as good as Brosius's that series.

 

A certain two-out, two-run homer earlier in that game is definitely higher.

 

And Tino's.

 

Without reading four pages of BS (or even thinking about Jeter's Nov. 1 HR) the Top 5 home runs of all-time are:

1. Mazeroski (only Game 7, bottom of the 9th winner in WS history)
2. Thomson (Bottom 9th of Game 3 of best of 3 playoff when only 1 team in each league made the "post-season")
3. Carter. (Other than Maz, only bottom of the 9th WS winning home run...I don't care that it was Game 6, he won the freaking WS with that HR.)
4-5 Puckett/Fisk (For reasons stated on Page 1 of this thread...kept teams alive but did not clinch anything.)

 

I try not to remember anything about the Yankees' postseason exploits since they crapped on my happiness in '96 and '99.
