Last night’s grand slam by Yaz produced a cascade of trivia…
Who hit the last walk-off grand slam by a Giant?
Who was the pitcher against whom he hit the grand slam? Clue - an odd tie-in to last night’s opponent.
Only four have been hit in the franchise’s San Francisco era - who hit them?
Who hit the last walk-off grand slam in the franchise’s New York era? Clue - a guy who hit a rather notable walk-off HR later the same year.
And not a question but another oddity- The Boston Red Sox have hit the most walk-off grand slams in baseball history (20). However, Captain Carl never hit one. I wonder if Yaz the Younger will make a phone call today…….
