How will you best remember Big Papi?

As David Ortiz's final regular season hits its home stretch, we're asking fans to select the Boston Red Sox slugger's signature achievement.

A week ago, we began the Big Papi Bracket with an opening round of 32 moments. Last Thursday, we revealed the Sweet 16. Today, it's the Elite Eight. On Thursday, the Final Four.

And next Monday, the championship round.

All you have to do is vote.

Green Monster Region

No. 1 seed: Oct. 17, 2004 -- With the Red Sox down 3-0 in the American League Championship Series, Ortiz hits a 12th-inning, two-run, walk-off home run against? Paul Quantrill to beat the New York Yankees and spark Boston's historic series comeback.

No. 2 seed: Oct. 20, 2004 -- His two-run home run off Yankees starter Kevin Brown in the first inning of Game 7 of the ALCS starts the scoring in a curse-breaking blowout in the Bronx. Ortiz is named MVP of the series after hitting .387 with three home runs and 11 RBIs.

Pesky Pole Region

No. 1 seed: Oct. 13, 2013 -- Ortiz sends Torii Hunter tumbling over the right-field wall at Fenway Park -- and turns a celebrating Boston cop, Steve Horgan, into a celebrity -- with a grand slam that turns the tide in Game 2 of the ALCS against the Detroit Tigers.

No. 2 seed: Oct. 8, 2004 -- ALCS, here we come! Ortiz's two-run, 10th-inning home run off Jarrod Washburn sweeps the Anaheim Angels out of the ALDS and sets up an all-time classic series with the Yankees.

The Triangle Region

No. 1 seed: April 20, 2013 -- The only No. 1 seed not in October, but it's a serious contender for the crown nonetheless. Otherwise known as The Speech, Ortiz addresses the Fenway faithful, the city of Boston and the entire country in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombing. "All right, Boston," Big Papi says. "This jersey that we wear today, it doesn't say 'Red Sox.' It says 'Boston.' We want to thank you, Mayor [Thomas] Menino, Governor [Deval] Patrick, the whole police department for the great job that they did this past week. This is our f---ing city. And nobody's going to dictate our freedom. Stay strong."

No. 2 seed: Oct. 27, 2013 -- Since we're on the subject of speeches, Big Papi's Game 4 pep talk in the dugout helps rally his teammates to a 4-2 win, tying the World Series with the St. Louis Cardinals after Boston had dropped Games 2 and 3.

Yawkey Way Region

No. 1 seed: Oct. 18, 2004 -- Down 3-1 in the ALCS (after his walk-off home run in Game 4), Ortiz smacks a two-out, game-winning single in the 14th inning off Yankees reliever Esteban Loaiza to bring Boston within a game of tying the series.

No. 2 seed: Oct. 27, 2004: It's more a team moment than simply an Ortiz moment, but Big Papi celebrating the Red Sox's first World Series title in 86 years -- after hitting .308 with a home run and four RBIs in a sweep of the Cardinals -- could give the No. 1 seed in the Yawkey Way Region a run for its money.
