Picard's poll is up... time to come up with Sisko's greatest moment folks.

'In the Pale Moonlight'. Sacrificing his integrity to get the Romulans into the War... and finding out he's all right with it.

Either that, or punching out Q.

Agreed.

Hmmm, there was also "The Ship," or "Waltz." His speech to the Prophets in "Sacrifice of Angels" was notable. The Evil Sisko act in "For the Uniform" was certainly a standout moment in the career of Benjamin Lafayette Sisko...

I'll second his getting the Romulans into the war.

Tackling Gul Dukat into the fire cave was pretty damn spectacular, IMO.

Honestly, "In the Pale Moonlight" was the first thing that came to mind. I just scrubbed my mind for a few more options to throw in the running

As the Pale Moonlight has already been mentioned -

Crawling back into the punishment box in "Paradise"

Watching him commit warcrimes in For the Uniform was my favorite. Not because it was awesome but because it finally showed a Captain that wasn't sqeaky clean (VOY hadn't descended that far yet nor was ENT on the horizon).

In a more milquetoast version of that, I'd say his monomania about the baseball game vs. the Vulcan crew. Not important to anything, really, but showed how skewed and human a Starfleet captain could be.

Agreed. That was also a good one.

Him diving into the Wormhole to face a fleet of ships.
