Yeah, if the Jays didn't win game 2 of that series I don't think they would have won that year. But given how they'd been labelled as chokers for so many years going into the 92 playoffs, the Alomar home run seemingly changed everything. After that you had guys like a washed up Kelly Gruber and the unknown Ed Sprague knocking out clutch home runs, and Mr.May himself Dave Winfield delivering the winning hit in the 92 series.
