SAN FRANCISCO • For the second time in as many days, the San Francisco Giants have a grand slam against a NL Central opponent.
This time it was the Cardinals fielding that gave them an assist.
A day after young Kelby Tomlinson cracked his first big-league grand slam after an intentional walk from the Cubs loaded the bases for him, the Cardinals set the stage for another granny with a couple errors in the field. Matt Carpenter failed to pick a grounder that put the first runner on base. Then Kolten Wong's shovel pass to second base on what could have been a double play went awry and kept two runners on base instead of none.
