Granted, it’s one person‘s opinion and has McGwire and bonds in there. But it’s worth a watch.

Before watching, try and list five or 10 and see if they are on there.

After Griffey Jr, Manny was my favorite player. Dude was so naturally badass. Miguel Cabrera is up there for me too. Love those natural talents that make it look easy.
Carter is the biggest I've seen personally. No bigger stage. Puckett's against the Braves was huge as well. What a series that was.
My favorite will always be Griffey hitting the warehouse in Baltimore.

Don't need to see the list, but if Mazeroski's HR is not #1, then the list is invalid.

During the intro to game 2 of the 1988 World Series NBC did an intro that showed a splice of The Natural with Gibson's homerun.
It's the only HR I've seen that became an instant classic. A lot of homeruns are great because of nostalgia but not this one.
In fact when Gibson got back to his locker someone had replaced his nameplate with Roy Hobbs.
It's the greatest because it's not just another game winner - it's a movie HR, it's Hollywood come to life on the biggest stage in the most dramatic fashion. It's almost fake, it can't be real. If you know the full backstory (they tell it in the Ken Burns doc) it reads like fiction.

And to add to your story... it was on one of the greatest closers in history.

That’s a solid list............
Bonus...... Reggie Jackson’s 1971 all star game home run. I think it’s still in the air. The swing was perfect and he crushed it.............

You aren't going to see many harder-hit balls.
