    Granderson hit a grand slam last Thursday in his final plate appearance for the New York Mets. According to Elias Sports Bureau research, he's the first player in major league history to his two grand slams over a four-game span for two different teams.

    His first L.A. grand slam was a huge one, as it turned a 3-1 deficit to Gerrit Cole and the Pittsburgh Pirates into a 5-3 lead. The Dodgers now have eight grand slams this season, two more than any other team. Also, Monday's win marked the fourth time this season they've won a game they trailed by three-plus runs entering the seventh. They had one such win in the four-year period from 2013 to 2016.

    At this point, they need only 14 wins to even make the playoffs
