The odds of that are so improbable.

Both of those grand slams came off one pitcher, Chan Ho Park. In between those HRs Park also gave up a solo shot to Eli Marrero.

Is it retiring when you missed the past 4 seasons?

Where are Tatis’ career earnings? B-ref tells me he earned about 18 MM, certainly worthy of a footnote when every other retiring player gets his salaries mentioned..
Timothy Bryce
Well that was a blast from the past.

Wasn’t he one of the four Dodgers who hit four consecutive home runs against the Padres in the ninth inning? I’m thinking JD Drew and Nomar were a part of that group as well.
That was Kent/Drew/Martin/Anderson, Garciaparra won it in the 10th.
I don’t think Tatis ever played for the Dodgers.

Wasn’t a pitcher part of that too?

To think the cards considered trading Pujols to the expos instead of Tatis.

I hadn’t heard that, so I Googled it and found a great article from December of 2000 that refers to Pujols as a promising third base prospect (which he was) but who was still at least a year away from being ready for the big leagues. The dude hit .327/37/130 in 2001 and OPS’d 1.013 with just 93 k’s. I think he was ready!

When I lived in MO I had a Cards shirt with his name on it. He was such fun to watch.

I always like it when a player has a career, then disappears for a few year, then reinvents himself and returns for a 2nd run at the majors. Tatis did that in the late 2000’s. Props to him, and happy retirement.

Ha was just thinking about the 2 HR game. I was in attendance, the only Dodger game I ever saw in Chavez Ravine. I had and extra seat ticket and traded the untorn ticket stub. Got a 1/2 bottle of Lefite Rothschild.

Two grand slams in one inning, not just one game.
