2. Roberto Alomar‘s Two-Out Homer off Eckersley in 1992

Some would argue that Alomar’s clutch two-out homer in 1992 is the biggest home run in Blue Jays history. Although it didn’t win the game, it’s an iconic home run that helped propel the Blue Jays to back-to-back World Series titles.

With two out in the top of the ninth inning, Devon White on third and the Blue Jays trailing by two, Alomar took reigning American League MVP and Cy Young Award winner Dennis Eckersley deep.

Considering how dominant Eckersley was, Alomar’s home run is nothing short of remarkable. Toronto would go on to win 7-6 in 11 innings, and eventually take the series in six games.
