Gentile Sets Fifth Grand Slam as Orioles Beat Cubs Eight Six
Jim Gentile slugged his fifth grand slam of the season tying a major league mark as Baltimore defeated Chicago eight to six. He joined Ernie Banks in 1955 with the feat and likely faces an asterisk due to the expanded schedule. The game featured Larsen allowing Gentile’s slam in the fifth, with Estrada benefiting from Gentile’s earlier slam streak.
