Big East in the Big Leagues: The Matt Szczur Show

Where else were we going to start? If you hit your first career grand slam and also play for the best team in baseball (both my opinion and a statistical fact), you get a ton of accolades in BEITBL. If you happened to miss Szczur's grand slam, we've got you covered right here.

Szczur, mostly used as a defensive replacement or pinch hitter, racked up two other hits this week to raise his season batting average to .357. Small sample size (31 plate appearances), sure, but it's nice to see from a guy who struggled to find a home between Triple-A and MLB last season.
