Who is the only pitcher to hit a grand slam in the World Series?
Dave McNally is the only pitcher in Major League history to hit a grand slam in a World Series game (Game 3, 1970, a 9–3 victory). His home run cleared the right field wall and the Orioles went on to win the World Series against the Cincinnati Reds.
In 1971 the Orioles made it back to the World Series and McNally was one of the Orioles' 4 twenty game winners--Dave McNally, Jim Palmer, Mike Cuellar, and Pat Dobson. This was the last time any MLB team had 4 twenty game winners.

Pascal Collins,
Must we dredge up the same tired arguments every time the World Series comes up in a question? 🙄

Louise C., I did the same thing, for the very same reason. Like you, I was wrong

I know very little about Baseball, so I went for the only name that I had heard of, and well that was wrong.

Babe Ruth is the only one I have heard of, never seen a baseball game

David Sarnow, Guilty as charged- older than 55 and not a baseball fan!

David Sarnow, I am 72 years old and have never heard of Dave McNally (until now). There again, I don't live in the USA so my WORLD is a little bit larger with varied topics
David Sarnow
A fact that in order to know, you have to be at least 55 years old. The only way to know is to remember it. I do. On the other hand, if you´re 55 or older and you´ve never heard of Dave McNally, well, you´re no baseball fan
