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.

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? :)

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)

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.

All coming with 2 out. Good half inning.

Or as Chris from Sacramento would say … “yeah but Hurtward hit that off a rookie nobody”.

Yeah he hit that like a rocket. Beautiful swing by Jason. That’s him right there. Love it!
