I still blame that Mose-looking kid who reached over the railing.

Haha, yeah that was some BS for sure. The Royals were the better team that year though. Jays had the talent but couldn't put it together when needed.

So what did you think he meant? One of the best in Blue Jays history but the absolute best in MLB playoff history?

Anyways no doubt a top 3 in Jays history, that much is fact but how the hell did he get picked up? And quick?

“Touch em all joe”
Timlin to Carter to win vs Atlanta
Alomar off eck

That’s just top of my head

So yeah, it ain’t top 3

Edit- ed sprague

I’m probably gonna edit this a few more times as Jack Daniels brings back my 92 and 93 memories.

You're reaching. I'd argue only Alomar and Carters were better. Alomar because that started the dominance.

Spragues homerun isn’t more memorable. It was more important because it helped lead to a World Series but not a more exciting one. Same with Timlin to Carter. It was a routine bunt. It sealed the World Series victory but as an actual baseball play it was nothing. Bautista home run is pretty easily top 3 in blue jays playoff history if you’re talking about excitement and being iconic. The non-call triple play would be up there as well.

We definitely have our own criteria and definitions at work here.

Sure. I just think there is a difference between an important moment or play and an exciting/memorable one. When the two converge that’s the ultimate.
