Baseball Blogs Weigh In: Yankees, Bedard, Rasmus

Eight years ago today, Bill Mueller became the first and only player in baseball history to hit a grand slam from each side of the plate in the same game. The Red Sox third baseman took lefty Aaron Fultz deep with the bases loaded in the seventh, then an inning later he did the same to righty Jay Powell. He also had a solo shot off R.A. Dickey in the third inning, helping Boston to a 14-7 win over Rangers.
