Video: Two Walk-off Grand Slams on the Same Day For the First Time Since 1998
By Jason McIntyre
Giancarlo Stanton of the Marlins and & Joey Votto of the Reds might be a Jeopardy question this summer. For the first time since the height of the steroid era (1998), there were two walk-off grand slams on the same day. The two who did it back then – Mo Vaughn and Steve Finley.
Of the three players who inked massive offsesaon deals – Albert Pujols, Prince Fielder and Votto – the latter is the only guy having anything close to a normal season (.319 average, .466 OBP, five homers, 24 RBI).
