Oh, no. Alex up with bases loaded and 2 outs. This doesn’t look too promising. I hope he proves me wrong. I’ll happily eat crow if Alex does something good.
another article asking WHATS WRONG with Heyward, just let the 22 year old play ball. Geez. That was a WAY better AB then Prado, what da hell was he doing?
Wrigley’s weird dimensions definitely helped that one out… but hey, if Johnny Damon could look like a power hitter in Yankee Stadium and get away with it, why not celebrate a 375-foot GS to LCF?
Great half inning for the team there. Infield hustle hit, solid single, walk, and a big walk to Alex – laying off that 3-2 pitch must have been tough. Then a grand slam on a 1-2 pitch to Heyward.

That’s three homers for Heyward in his past two starts at Wrigley.
First grand slam of his career, and his fourth four-RBI game (that’s his career-high for RBIs in a game)
