The Grand Slam

The Warriors have set a team record with three grand slams in the 2011 season.  Matt LeVigne, Tyler Dempsey and Rick Sisco have each hit a grand slam this season.  The all-time Major League leader in grand slams is Lou Gehrig--who hit an astounding 23 grand slams in his career.  That record has stood for many decades.

I captured this photo of Lou Gehrig's Hall of Fame plaque while visiting Cooperstown a couple of years ago.  You can click within the image for a larger view:
