Mitch Moreland...the only MSU baseball player in MSU

history to hit a grand slam and only plate 3 runs on said grand slam.

Bonus to the cat who can name who we were playing. Hint...it was a directional school and we lost by 3 runs.

I actually just checked out the official scoring for the grand slam. It was scored as a 3 RBI groundout to the first baseman.

Did not know this. Are you saying he missed stepping on first and eventually they stepped on the base with the ball and called him out??

Dallas Baptist....Ed Easley was going back to the bag to tag, and Mitch touched 1B and passed him. Crazy play.

Incidentally, this is one of those nutty baseball rules makes absolutely no sense. It's a home run. The ball was hit over the fence and is DEAD. The bases are by rule technically cleared and there is no absolutely no possible advantage that can be gained by the runners crossing. They really shouldn't even have to run the bases for crying out loud.
