2023 Season: Game 147 Recap \u2013 Sept. 22<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What do the Cleveland Indians, Albuquerque Isotopes and St. Paul Saints have in common?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hint: It\u2019s a grand distinction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With Michael Helmon providing the muscle, the Saints joined the Indians and Isotopes last night (Friday) as the only teams to hit 14th<\/sup> grand slam home runs in season in American professional baseball history since records started being kept in 2005.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Helman\u2019s blast off the batter\u2019s eye wall in centerfield led the Saints to their fourth straight win, 10-6, over the Toledo MudHens in front of an announced crowd of 7,517 radiation-free (presumably) humans at CHS Field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The triple-A Saints scored 7 runs in the 2nd<\/sup> inning, with Prato hammering a 2-run roundtripper to go with Helmon\u2019s blast. Severino added a solo blast in the 3rd<\/sup>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chris Williams and Jair Camargo have hit 3 grand salamis for the Saints this season, and Helman\u2019s was his 2nd<\/sup>. Single 4-run pokes have come from Contreras, Wallner, Stevenson, Garlick, Lee and Larnach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Three Twins players saw major league rehab action. Stewart pitched a scoreless inning and Contreras 2 innings. Dee Gordon played 2nd<\/sup> base and went 0-for-3 at the plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The season-ending series continues tonight (Saturday) at 6:37 p.m. Sunday\u2019s season finale will begin at 12:07 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How to Hear and See the Saints<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n All games on KFAN Plus (96.7 FM), I-Heart app, MiLB.TV, Bally app (Apple only); home<\/em> games on local television public programming (consult your TV listings); Saturday and Sunday home<\/em> games televised on WUCW (The CW Network).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 2023 Season: Game 147 Recap \u2013 Sept. 22 What do the Cleveland Indians, Albuquerque Isotopes and St. Paul Saints have in common?
