Yasmani Grandal stepped to the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning on Sunday with the bases loaded, two outs, and the Dodgers trailing the Colorado Rockies by two runs.
In the span of a six-pitch at-bat that ended with Grandal striking out on an Adam Ottavino breaking ball, three runs crossed the plate, two on a single wild pitch, giving the Dodgers the lead and Grandal what has to be the most productive out in baseball history.
Folks, you can’t make this stuff up.
The Dodgers rode the unconventional rally, another multi-homer game from rookie phenom Cody Bellinger, a five-run rally in the eighth and a five-out save by Kenley Jansen to a 12-6, come-from-behind victory, giving them 10 straight wins and 16 wins in their last 17 games.
