The 10 Best Home Run Trots in MLB History

Jared FeldmanJan 17, 2012

Home run celebrations can be of two different types.

Spur of the moment and choreographed.

The greatest ones are those created by pure circumstance and emotion, though the well thought out ones aren't too bad either.

In recent years the home run has become more and more common and therefore the celebrations have evolved even more elaborately.

Here are some of the greatest home run celebrations of all time.

Kirk Gibson: The Limp off

1 of 10

Possibly the most clutch moment in postseason history, no one knows what would have happened if Gibson had merely doubled.

Bryce Harper's Blown Kiss

2 of 10

This one isn't so much of a trot, it is more of a display of public affection.

Carlton Fisk the Conductor

3 of 10

'Stay fair, stay fair,' thought Fisk.

Luckily his conductor skills paid off with a fair ball.

Babe Ruth the Speedy Stallion

4 of 10

Babe Ruth would always trot around the bases, mostly because he couldn't make it around the bases in a short amount of time.

David Price: Pitcher and Gymnast

5 of 10

I do wish he did this in a game some day.

Mark McGwire's Disjoined 62nd Home Run Trot

6 of 10

McGwire's is of pure astonishment and acknowledgement of his own accomplishment. That and steroids can cause dizziness on occasion.

The Explosive Prince Fielder

7 of 10

Bombs Away!

Wilson Ramos the Walk off

8 of 10

So proud of Wilson Ramos, he didn't break his leg like Kendrys Morales.

Joe Carter Wins the World Series

9 of 10

It rivals that of Kirk Gibson, though Joe Carter is able to physically celebrate more easily without causing himself any real harm.

Bobby Thomson's Shot Heard Round the World

10 of 10

The history of this home run is what makes it for me.

Gotta love the third base coach's reaction.
