With the bases still full, the Rockies’ Jake Bird left a sinker right over the heart of the plate.

Matt Chapman hit a grand slam to help the San Francisco Giants beat the lowly Colorado Rockies 6-3. Chapman connected against Jake Bird with one out in the sixth, capping a five-run inning after the Rockies scored three times in the top of the frame.
