When Cubs hit 2 grand slams in a game, 1890 By JohnW53 on Apr 22, 2021, 5:28am CDT +
Fernando Tatis Sr., father of the current Padre, hit 2 grand slams in the same inning for the Cardinals against the Dodgers on April 23, 1999.
No other player has hit 2 slams in 1 inning. Twelve more have hit 2 slams in a game, from Tony Lazzeri of the Yankees in 1936 through Josh Willingham of the Nationals in 2009.
Tony Cloninger, a pitcher, did it for the Braves in 1966.
Future Hall of Famer Frank Robinson did it for the Orioles in 1970.
Nomar Garciaparra did for the Red Sox in 1999, 17 days after Tatis, making that the only season in which it happened twice.

Brady Singer played in the SEC for three seasons before being drafted by the Kansas City Royals, so he faced a ton of talented hitters prior to starting his professional career. Pitching for the University of Florida from 2016-2018, Singer matched up against the likes of JJ Bleday, Nick Senzel, Bryan Reynolds, and Evan White. Easy marks were few and far between.
Which of his collegiate opponents does Singer recall respecting the most? More specifically, which hitter had him laser-focused on making quality pitches, lest an errant offering result in serious damage?
“One that really stands out wasn’t in the SEC, but rather in Omaha,” Singer told me. “I believe it was the first game I pitched there, in 2017 when we went on to win the [College] World Series. It was Brendan McKay, from Louisville. When he got in the box, I knew I had to dial in. Just the bat path he had, and how he stood in the box how he presented himself was tough.”
