2017 - The Nationals split a day-night doubleheader with the San Francisco Giants, taking the nightcap, 6-2,
to seal the series victory with an 11th-inning walk-off grand slam off the bat of Howie Kendrick. The home
run -- the 99th of Kendrick’s career – was his first grand slam, and his third-career walk-off longball (first
since April 23, 2013 for LAA vs. TEX). According to the Elias Sports Bureau, 95 other players in MLB history
have hit a walk-off grand slam as their first MLB grand slam.
