But the ball goes through his legs and into right field, Knight charges home and the Mets win after the comeback of the century (Boston had the 5-3 lead going into the inning until the Mets rallied 2 outs into the inning).

lol. Anyway, mine is when Don Mattingly's first ever post season home run against the Seattle Mariners. The Stadium went ballistic and Mattingly had finally reached the playoffs for the first time in his career.
