Jim Thome

In the bottom of the ninth inning with the game notched at six, 44,878 fans at Citizens Bank Park were on their feet as Jim Thome entered the game as a pinch-hitter. The lefty slugger pounced on a full-count, 97mph fastball and sent it well into the left-field seats for an opposite field, walk-off home run. This homer put Thome at 13 career game-winners which broke the tie with Jimmie Foxx, Mickey Mantle, Babe Ruth, Stan Musial and Frank Robinson for most career walk-off home runs.
