Retro-sheet even found it noteworthy enough to mention in their recap. http://www.retrosheet.org/boxesetc/2002/B06020PHI2002.htm Then he hit a three run homerun a bit later on. That was quite a game.

I've noticed you take suggestions for stats of the day. Where would I suggest something? Or do I just do it as a comment here? New to this.

The only pitcher to do it, and the first National League ballplayer of any kind to do it. http://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/SFN/SFN196607030.shtml Go back to 1966, and you'll find the day when pitcher Tony Cloninger hit two grand slams in one game.

Sure this happens occasionally, but not by an American League pitcher. They only get maybe four AB's a year. The guy has two career hits and 5 career RBI. That says nothing, of course with 9 total AB, but still. I'm speaking as a Mariners fan of course. The grand slam by Felix was probably the most amazing thing that has happened this year.
