Happy anniversary to that ball caroming off Jose Canseco's head and over the wall for a homer
Watch a ball carom off Canseco's head for a homer
Baseball pundits will tell you that the game's greatest home runs were hit by the likes of Bobby Thomson, Babe Ruth or Barry Bonds. But on this day, 22 years ago, the Indians' Carlos Martinez dialed up one of the more memorable dingers of all-time. Mostly because it didn't get over the wall on its own. Mostly because it hit off Jose Canseco's head:
It was one of 25 career home runs for Martinez and Canseco actually sold the homer-assisting cap a few years ago. What a world. Happy anniversary, guys.
