Is it possible to have something similar to a buzzer beater in baseball? What
is it called in Japanese? If not, how would you refer to a game-winning action
in a sport?

What do you call a ブザービーター　in baseball?
There is no buzzer to beat in baseball.

The closest thing I can think of is サヨナラヒット, サヨナラホームラン, etc. They refer to a
play that scores a winning run in the bottom of the ninth or later inning and
thus literally ends the game.

In sports commentary, [起死回生]{きしかいせい} is often used to refer to a late game-
winning action. It could also be used for a game-tying action in games in
which a tie is worth something, such as football. For example, an equalizer in
the dying minutes of a match would be called 起死回生の同点ゴール. It is like saying an
equalizing goal that brings the (otherwise-dead) team back to life.
