7. Joe Carter’s game and series winning home run, Game 6, 1993 World Series.

It was especially touching because Joe Carter recorded the last out of the 1992 World Series, the first time a Canadian team had won.

Here’s the pitch on the way, a swing and a belt! Left field! Way back! Blue Jays win it! The Blue Jays are World Series champions as Joe Carter hits a three-run home run in the ninth inning and the Blue Jays have repeated as World Series Champions! Touch 'em all, Joe, you’ll never hit a bigger home run in your life!

• Blue Jays broadcaster Tom Cheek.
