August 6, 1986: Orioles ‘slam’ Rangers with 9-run fourth inning but still lose gameWitt had managed to overcome the four walks he had issued over the first three innings, but he finally paid the price for his wildness in the bottom of the fourth. He walked the first three batters – Cal Ripken Jr. (https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/8bfeadd2), Dwyer, and Jim Traber (https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/ca626dfa) – to load the bases. Sheets then socked Baltimore’s first grand slam of the day to bring the Orioles within two runs of the Rangers. After Tom O’Malley (https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/f21813e5) singled, Valentine put Witt out of his misery and sent Jeff Russell (https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/b0f18289) in to quell the uprising.Russell, however, fared no better than his predecessor as he, too, had trouble throwing strikes. After walking Rick Dempsey (https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/c2d6fdd7), he induced popouts by Juan Bonilla (https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/493e0713) and Lacy to Harrah at second base, but then he walked Fred Lynn and loaded the bases once more. Ripken reached base when Buechele booted his grounder at third, allowing O’Malley to score and keeping the bases full. Dwyer, who had been red-hot entering the game, took advantage of the situation by clearing the bags with Baltimore’s second slam, giving the home team a 9-6 lead. Dwyer now had 15 RBIs in his last nine games and eight homers in 116 at-bats, which was one more than he had hit in 233 at-bats the previous year.3 In the aftermath of the game, all Dwyer had to say was, “First grand slam … took me 12 years to do it.”4 The total of three grand slams in one game set a major-league record.
