I would say the shot heard round the world, too.
But I think Mike Piazza's homer 10 days after 9/11 ranks right up there. I live in New York and as a Cubs fan, despise both the Yanks and Mets, but it was hard not to be moved by that moment. I still get chills when I think about it. And, gasp!, I pulled for the Mets that night. I think just about the whole country did. Perhaps even some Braves fans. I don't think it "started the healing," as I've heard some people say. But it sure made sports fans feel better for a few minutes, and was a first step toward returning to normalcy. Rob |
