That series was insane. As a fan, it made me exhausted. I can only imagine how the players felt. Having to have a game moved into the only off day of the series because of weather, consecutive extra inning games and how long those games were just took every ounce of energy. I found it so funny that the makeup date meant an afternoon start so it wouldn't interfere with the NL game's ratings later that night. Didn't matter. The 14 inning marathon started about 3 hours before the NL game and ended after.

It's THE most overrated highlight in the history of sports. The reason why it was held in such high esteem was because of the curse and the New England media, and fans had to grasp at straws for ANY playoff glory. If they won the series ok I get it. Once the Sox won it all in '04 it should have been swept into the dustbin of history. The '67 team was overhyped for the exact same reason. And you put on par with Mazeroski and Carter?!?!?

It was such a catastrophic homerun to the hearts of Yankees fans, most of who were still standing and cheering about the throw-out at home on the immediately prior pitch and play.

Ortiz against the Tigers is the biggest, they weren't better than the Tigers that season and were about to be down 0-2 to one of the greatest pitching rotations ever assembled, Ortiz sucked the life out of them with one swing even though it was only game 2, it felt like there was no way they were losing the series after that.

[@petis1976]

Dude the Sox Rotation was stacked in 13. Lester lost game 1 1-0. Lachey won his start 1-0, in fact only game 5 was decided by more than 3 runs. If Boston loses game two the series likely goes 7 games. Which also makes Victorino's game six grand slam that much bigger. And guess who would have started game seven for the Sox, John Lachey. Oh and Boston had a better season record too.

Red Sox bats went to sleep against Detroit, though. They were nearly no-hit in Game 1 -- Daniel Nava got a hit with one out in ninth -- and went into the fifth or sixth of Game 2 hitless. I think Pedroia broke up Scherzer's no-hit bid in Game 2.

[@mikegulliver4885]

I think that the problem with this list is that the outcome of the series must be in doubt, or it must have some other kind of significance for it to be "big". If you are in command of the series or game, the homerun is far less important. I would include, in no particular order: 1. Troy O'Leary's two blasts in 1999 ALDS game 5, which completed and improbable comeback from 0-2 series deficit and broke the streak of 5 straight playoff series losses since '86. The game was a rollercoaster - O'Leary's grand slam brought them back in the game, and his last 3-run homerun was the decider. 2. Trot Nixon's extra-inning walk off in 2003 ALDS game 3 to stave off elimination and spark an 0-2 series comeback against Mulder and Zito. They were perilously close to going home for the winter at several points throughout game - the homerun rescued their season. 3. Ortiz' HR in 2004 ALDS game 5 - eighth inning, down by 2 and it looked like the series was going to close after the game 4 miracle. Ortiz' blast off Gordon was an instant morale booster and again put them within striking distance of the Yankees. 4. Ortiz' HR in the 2004 ALCS, game 7, first inning. Damon gets thrown out at the plate, and the Yankees crowd goes nuts...Sox fans start to think that the curse is alive again. Ortiz instantly homers, immediately shifting the momentum and restoring fan's confidence. 5. Dave Henderson's 10th inning homerun in 1986 WS game 5 - it would've been the game winner if the Sox had closed the door in the bottom of the inning.

[@kvernon1]

What made O'Leary's two home runs in 1999 even more special is that both times, the batter before him was intentionally walked!

[@donaldleider7382]

I always always thought Johnny Damon’s grand slam was he most important and pivotal home run in Red Sox history. It’s the one that made the statement the they’re finally going to beat the Yankees and end the curse. None of these other home runs are possible without it!

'86 was my year. Hendu's 2 run go-ahead home run amazingly came 3 at bats after Don Baylor hit a 2 run home run to give them a chance. Sox were down to their last 2 outs losing by 3 runs in the top of the 9th and hit TWO 2 run home runs. RED SOX 9TH: Buckner singled to center; STAPLETON RAN FOR BUCKNER; Rice was called out on strikes; Baylor homered [Stapleton scored]; Evans popped to third; LUCAS REPLACED WITT (PITCHING); Gedman was hit by a pitch; MOORE REPLACED LUCAS (PITCHING); Henderson homered [Gedman scored]; Romero flied out to right; 4 R, 3 H, 0 E, 0 LOB. Red Sox 6, Angels 5. Then Sox relief (Stanley, Sambito) gives up the tying run in the bottom of the 9th and bases loaded with 1 out but manage to get out of the inning. A squeeze bunt would've sent Angels to the WS. Then the Sox win the game in the 11th on a Hendu sac fly. Sox still had to win game 6 and 7 in Fenway to go to world series. It was an amazing post season in both leagues. I went to ALCS game #1 at Fenway. Had the Sox won Game 6 of the World Series, Hendu's go ahead home run in the 10th inning would've been tops on this list. Fate had other plans so that home run doesn't even get on the list.

Dave Henderson is too low, but awesome compilation!

[@flconductor2]

Fisk, Henderson & Carbo have to be in the top 5. fun video

[@CASoxFan12]

2004 was something special...

[@Tomas-ql9yo]

Big papi's father went to New York Cooperstown hall of fame to touch Babe Ruth bat to say, the curse will be broken. I don't remember if Ortiz said the same year or the next the won the world series. True story, saw the video of Big Papi tour of the hall of fame. It took humble oneself to break the course. It's like giving respect to Babe Ruth finally broke the curse.

[@ChiefKillaCue]

I miss that Sox logo cut into the infield grass..can we bring that back?!

[@jmcgaw]

Damon's grannie for me. I knew the Sox were actually going to win the series when it went out. Shane Victorino's grand slam against the Tigers on 10/19/13 should also be on here. Never understood all the love for the Fisk walk-off. I'm sure it was thrilling in real time, but they got their hearts broken that year after blowing a lead in Game 7.

[@bosoxfan2525]

I'd put Bellhorn's 3 run homer in game 6 of the 2004 ALCS up there at #1 with Ortiz's. That helped the Sox tie the series. I'd then put Damon's Grand Slam AND 2 run homer the next day, up there at #1 as well. Any thoughts that the Yankees had about winning that game/series, went away after that! So yes, I'd have a 3 way tie at #1 😂

[@TheRuns2]

It's so tough to come up with an order for this, or even a #1. They've hit so many big HRs that one doesn't really stand out in front of the others. You could tie Ortiz's HR from the same game with Damon's for #10. To hit the HR immediately after Damon got Sveum'd in the 1st and bring the momentum back was huge. And I agree that Victorino's GS should be on the list. If I had to knock one off the list to do it, it would be JBJ's. I'd also say JBJ's GS in game 3 was bigger than the one picked for this list.

[@larry930legend]

Carlton Fisk hmm..could be #3. But THANX 4 adding Moreland and Gomes,their heroics were after tough defeats, Sox never give up.

[@danielkelegian5306]

Henderson's HR has to be #1 or #2. Cmon man.

[@coolguy02536]

7:07 Joe Buck really said "BACK AT THE WALL" when the outfielder didn't even budge.

[@azesino]

Ortiz slammy against the Tigers, number# 1.

[@tjstreamer5982]

DOWNING GOES BACK....AND IT'S GONE!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

[@christopherdeguilio6375]

The Fisk homer has to be higher, but I'm glad you placed Papi at #1... it's the moment when everything changed for the Sox and that series was undoubtedly the greatest series I will ever witness.

[@therealhuttertube]

I would put the grand slam versus tigers as number 2.. Most unexpected championship for the sox

[@williamf3988]

I would have thought Bucky Dent's HR in the 1978 ALCS would have made the list😂

[@wobrien007]

Fisk's homer in 75 should be higher. Critical game-winner in an elimination game.

[@RSLucky204]

I still think Fisk's home run should be number 1. We didn't win the World Series, but if we would have, that would always be the number 1 home run in Red Sox history.

[@mrbungle311]

Fisk’s HR is number 1

[@slimmcutty]

Shoutout mike napoli hr off Verlander game 3 2013....

[@paulflipse3353]

These are fucking fantastic.

[@a7xtherevrend]

The bloody sock game. Memories.

[@jamesrocha8320]

Fisk and Carbo should be 1 and 2 respectively.

[@311tim311]

vice versa- cuz when Bernie hit his, Sox were on their way out; Fisk's was iconic but the game was tied. I think the person who put this together was not around in 75, after all those losses.

[@Freeloader_420]

No. Ortiz tops that.

[@nyterpfan]

I agree--except I'd reverse the order.

[@lynskyrd]

I'm glad Ted Williams made 'the list' but NO WAY does his last at bat overshadow Johnny Damon's grand slam that turned Yankee Stadium into a funeral parlor and won the pennant after being down 0-3. The list itself is fine but DEFINITELY needs to be reordered.

[@brucemacmahon5603]

Saw all but Ted Williams, what with not having been born yet.

[@kenchamberlain2552]

no robbing a home run from that wall !

[@barfyman-dm6zx]

*Proceeds to watch 30 HRs

[@user-wy7zt9hs3z]

Tons of recent bias on this list, with Henderson and especially Carbo & Fisk too low, but who cares, rewatching all of these is glorious!

[@tryhardfinessedyou]

Right? Basically top ten anything could be argued in almost any order. Agree just love watching great baseball highlights.

[@tedbouzounis9601]

There was another Papi blast vs Anaheim that sent them to the ALCS...should be on the list
