GreatScott82 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 1. 2005- ALDS Game 1- My first playoff game ever and the Sox killed the defending champs to set the tone for a run we would never forget. 2. 2000- Jose Valentin hits a walk off single vs the defending champion Yankees. 3. 2003- Frank Thomas walk off homerun vs the Twins in extras (Pauly forced extra innings after hitting a 2 out HR off Guardado) 4. 1986- Harold Baines hits a walk off homerun at Old Comiskey. It was my first Sox game ever, i was 4 years old and my Dad was picking me up and celebrating. I remember saying to myself "this is awesome". 5. 2003- Frank Thomas hits his 400th HR. 6. 2003 Jose Valentin's walk off vs the Cubs. 7. 2005 back-2-back games. JD hits a walk off HR vs Angels. The very next day Timo Perez gets a walk off single. There are many many more. But these games really stick out for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddy Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) 1) Game 2 of the ALCS 2) Game 163 no others come close Edit: Oh yeah... and I was at that Back2Back2Back2Back game as well. That was beastly. Still not close to the first two though. Edited July 24, 2009 by Reddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 1. 2005 ALDS Game 1 versus Red Sox 2. 2005 World Series Game 1 3. 2005 ALCS Game 2 4. 2007 MB's no-hitter 5. 2004 All-Star game Also saw the home-run derby, 2008 ALDS Game 3, 2000 ALDS Game 1(ugh), and Jose Valentin hit for the cycle. Other favorites include Ray Durham walk-off versus the Cubs, Carlos Lee's walk-off Grand Slam versus the Cubs, JD's walk-off against the Angels, and Pierzynski fight versus the Cubs. It may sound like I go to a million games per season, but I have been extremely lucky with the games I attend. For some reason whenever I go something miraculous tends to happen...like when I attended my only game this year and we lost 20-1. I had tickets to go today but had to skip for summer school. Ugh.

Wow, you've been to some great games. Mine- 1. Buehrle 2007 no-hitter 2. Frank's first game back in 2006 3. Dye walk-off homer against LAA in 2005 4. Sox at NYY in 2005. They lost, but it was the game when Rowand made those two great catches and Pods made the catch and was punched by a fan.

TitoMB345 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Konerko's 3 homer game from a few weeks ago was my favorite. A runner up was the game against the Astros in 2006 where Iguchi sent us into extras with the 3-run jack and the grand slam (even though we lost, it was awesome).

JohnCangelosi Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 What's amazing to me in looking at all of these posts is the occurrence of Harold Baines coming up at old Comiskey. In one of my first games, Harold hit a walk off 3 run shot in the ninth with 2 outs against the Indians that I'll never forget. Amazing. I'm 37, so a lot of the younger crowd maybe doesn't remember him, but to me, he was BY FAR the most clutch hitter I have ever seen, bar none.

clyons Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 23, 2009 -> 08:42 PM) Unfortunately I had to work today but it got me thinking. Which games have I attended that were the most memorable. Here's mine in order: 1 - Game 4 of the World Series (Only post season game I ever attended unless you count my next pick) 2 - Game 163 3 - The 1993 clincher when Bo Jackson homered 4 - Late inning comeback on Frank Thomas' first game as an Athletic 5 - The first game the Sox played here after their impressive 9 - 0 road trip in 2000 I was at four of your five (I missed #3). I also made the dropped third strike game (2005 ALCS Game 2) and the Blowout of the BoSox in ALDS Game 1. IIRC, #4 ended on a walk off bunt by Pablo Ozuna. Good times.

GoSox05 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 Game 163 The game where Pablo Ozuna got hurt and ended what would've been a HOF career. The game in which Felix Diaz out dueled Big Z. Ozzie bobblehead day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthSideSox72 Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 1. Game 2 of 2005 WS (the Konerko GS and Pods walk-off - doesn't get better than that) 2. Game 2 of 2005 ALCS - the AJ dropped 3rd strike game 3. Game 163, 2008 - the Blackout 4. Opening Day, 2006 - the WS banners and tribute 5. Game 1 of 2005 ALDS - beating Boston 14-3, or something like that 6. Sometime in the late 80's or so, it was seat cushion day, and the last one ever, due to what happened that night. After a bad call on the field, someone in the crowd chucked their square, white seat cushion onto the field like a frisbee. Others followed suit, until it was snowing seat cushions. The PA announcements said the Sox would have to forfeit if that continued, so the Sox almost lost by forfeit that game. Hilarious. 7. Also sometime in the late 80's or maybe early 90's, saw the Sox come back from down, I think, 10-6 in the 9th, to win 12-10 on a Gary Redus Grand Slam. 8. Similar timeframe, I saw three straight homeruns hit, two by unlikely sources - Rudy Law, Ozzie Guillen, Harold Baines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The field was almost totally covered in seat cushions! I've missed a lot of memorable games the last 5-6 years, but a few older ones that stand out are Ventura's walk off grand slam against the Rangers (July 31, 1991, I think) and the first game back (Monday nighter, I think) after the Sox had that great road trip in 2000. At the time, it was the most electric game I'd ever been to (obviously surpassed by some of the amazing stuff the last 5-6 years). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
