Sure, they were up 2-1 in the series at the time, but they were down in game 4 and looking like this was just going to be typical of the Jays not being able to step it up when needed. So I saw Alomar's homer changed that, and some can make the argument this was bigger even still than Joe's home run in 1993.

Nah, nothing tops Carter’s home run, a home run that instantly wins a World Series is rare and historical. That’s why it’s been shown over and over. I would also rank Springer’s as the second biggest and Bautista’s as the third. Those homers were series deciding home runs. If they aren’t hit the Blue Jays don’t win those series.
Alomar’s was big, but it only tied the score in game 4 of a 7 game series. Important, yes, but not a singular game changing home run.
