This home run tied him with Bernie Williams for first place all-time in postseason home runs.[3] On October 13th, Ramirez hit his 23rd postseason home run, passing Bernie Williams for the most all-time.

2007.
The Cubs would go on to win the 2007 National League Central division, thanks in large part to Ramírez, whose 101 RBIs led the team. He also finished second on the Cubs in home runs (26) and batting average (.310). The divisional title came only after battling it out with Milwaukee for the final month of September. He played crucial roles in Cubs' victories against the St. Louis Cardinals on September 10 with 2 home runs and 12 total bases and against the Pittsburgh Pirates on September 21 with 2 home runs and 6 RBI.
Please, say, who could be better Ramirez in 2008 season? Who is the best of them, now? Why?
