That’s so baseball: go 104 plate appearances with the bases full and zero grand slams, finally connect on one... and what do you know? Two days later, Freddie Freeman slammed the Washington Nationals again, giving the Braves a 7-1 lead and helping them secure a series split on Labor Day weekend.
Freeman’s second grand slam of the series came with the Braves already holding a 3-1 lead in the sixth. They trailed early on a second-inning single by Eric Thames, which scored Brock Holt from first with two outs.
