Answer 2

In baseball, a walk-off home run is a home run that ends the game. It must be a home run that gives the home team the lead in the bottom of the final inning of the game — either the ninth inning, or any extra inning, or any other regularly scheduled final inning. It is called a "walk-off" home run because the teams walk off the field immediately afterward. Sportscasters also use the term "walk-off double" or other such terms if such a hit drives in the winning run to end the game. The terms walk-off hit by pitch or walk-off balk have been applied, and the latter has been dubbed a balk-off (these types of questionable walk-offs are seen by some fans as cheapening the concept). Although the concept is as old as baseball, the term itself has come into wide use only since the 1990s.

A homerun that is hit to end the game. like for example: the yankees are playing the redsox and it is bottom of the 9th 2 outs bases loaded and the redsox are playing at home.

The next batter hits a homerun to win the game for the redsox 5-4. since the bottom of the 9th is the end of the game and the home team is ahead, then there is no need to keep playing the game. so its called a walk off game winning homerun.
