Bryce Eldridge hits walk-off grand slam as Giants rally past Nationals
Summary

San Francisco Giants rookie Bryce Eldridge made history on June 10, hitting a walk-off grand slam to cap a dramatic 11-10 comeback against the Washington Nationals. The Giants trailed 10-7 in the bottom of the ninth with the bases loaded, and Eldridge's 326-foot homer overcame a 9-1 deficit earlier in the game. This victory marks the first time in MLB history that a team has secured a win with a walk-off grand slam after being down by eight runs or more in the eighth inning or later. Eldridge, at 21 years and 233 days old, is now the youngest player to hit a walk-off grand slam, breaking Roberto Clemente's record. The loss drops the Nationals from playoff contention as they now trail behind the Padres for a wild card spot in the National League.
