Hanley Ramirez gives a curtain call after his grand slam in the eighth inning on Thursday night against the Orioles.
The slam was Ramirez’s third of the season, and second in the series. He now ties the club record for a season with Cody Ross, who also has three this year. Jeff Conine (2004) and Bobby Bonilla (1997) also previously had three.
Ramirez entered the year without connecting a slam. In the three games with the Orioles, Ramirez had 11 RBIs, giving him a team most 47.
