My commentary on sports, entertainment, the news and whatever else pops into my shiny bald head.

Tater Tally

ESPN's Page 2 has compiled their list of the 100 greatest home runs of all time. Trivial sports lists are the types of things that Page 2 does best, and this one doesn't disappoint. I'm glad that they seemed to rank the bombs based on game significance, rather than just reputation. For example, the number 1 entry (the only Game 7 walk-off blast in World Series history) isn't as famous as McGwire's 62nd, so it's great that Bill Mazeroski is getting his due. To achieve such a tremendous feat with the stakes so high, you have to classify Maz's home run as one of the greatest--and most underrated--feat in sports history.
