Ummm...did you mean Bobby Thompson instead of Bobby Bonds, or did I miss a major moment?

I think all these "top" (top 50 athletes, top moment in baseball etc.) tend to glorify more recent occurences that haven't stood the test of time.

I had thought baseball might be different because part of what makes baseball special is its history. I never saw Shoeless Joe Jackson, but I know about him and quote the young fans "say it ain't so Joe" question as part of my vocabulary. It's part of our language.

I never saw Lou Gehrig play, but his "luckiest man" comment we all know by heart.

I think just on principle the top moment in baseball shouldn't consider events that aren't at least a decade old. Baseball is history.
