Listen "S2 E37 - Iconic Moments through the Generations"
Episode Synopsis
Steve and I discuss the requirements for something to be an iconic moment. I ponder why Kirk Gibson's homerun in the clinching game in 1984 is not as well known as his Game 1 homerun in 1989.
We use that example as a basis to discuss what makes a moment iconic. I ask if Freddie Freeman's grand slam will be iconic if the Dodgers lose (we now know they did not, so is it iconic?)
Others discussed, Tigers, Yankees, Aaron Judge, Mike Stanton, Juan Soto, Padres, Giants, Angels, Oakland A's, Canseco, McGwire, Rickey Henderson, Dennis Eckersley.
