Roberto Alomar's home run off Dennis Eckersley is easily among one of the top moments in franchise history, and help solidified himself as one of the heroes of the storied 1992-1993 World Series Championship teams.

I remember that being the turning point in the series with the A's (who were just as stacked as the Jays were at the time), and it was the first playoff series the Jays won en route to a World Series Championship. Also, for those who don't remember, Eckersley was as close to automatic as Mariano Rivera was for the Yankees, possibly even better. Being down 2 in the 9th with Eck on the mound seemed like a sure win for the A's, but Alomar turned it around with one swing.
Just an iconic moment in an amazing career.
