Jackson Holliday hits grand slam after returning to Orioles

Jackson Holliday returned to the Baltimore Orioles in grand style.

Hours after being officially recalled from the minors, Holliday belted a towering grand slam in the fifth inning of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays.

It was the first career major league home run for Holliday, the consensus No. 1 overall prospect in baseball who scuffled earlier this season in his first crack at the big leagues.

Holliday, 20, rocketed through the minor leagues and was called up April 10 to join the Orioles' elite core of young players.
