My brother and I were discussing the most exciting "Play" in baseball. Here is my list (excluding a no-hitter and perfect game):
1. Stealing Home
2. Inside-the-Park Home Run
3. Unassisted Triple Play
4. Grand Slam
5. Suicide Squeeze
6. Double Steal
7. Throwing a runner out at the plate

A triple of any kind, especially a bases-loaded triple.
Frankly, a three-run homer (much more common than a Grandslam) is pretty exciting too.

Charging the mound and the ensuing brawl is the most exciting thing in baseball. And I'm a huge fan.

Great list... but I would put "play at the plate" as #1. In my mind, this is the most exciting play in ANY sport.

Ozzie Smith turning a double play, or his trademark backflip in pre-game warmups.

Catching the ball while crashing into a fence.
A runner going from first to third on a single, or from first to home on a double.

Easily 5. Suicide Squeeze
Every baseball savey fan can see the oppertunity, both benches know it could happen. This build tremendous anticipation.
And when it does happen every single player on the field is in motion - very exicting, especially for the fans in the seats, Television can't cover that much action very well.
And its about a 50-50 chance of working. So its outcome is never a given.
