Parker Meadows hit a grand slam on a full count with two outs in the ninth inning to give the Detroit Tigers a 4-3 victory over the San Diego Padres on Thursday night.
Meadows' opposite-field homer went into the second row in left field off a 100.7 mph four-seam fastball from Padres closer. It was the second-fastest pitch a Tigers player has homered off of in the pitch-tracking era that started in 2008, behind only“I faced him last night and I knew he had a good heater. I took a couple of big swings in the at-bat. I tried to settle it down and not do too much and get on top of the heater,” Meadows said. “I was sprinting out of the box.
“It is momentum going into the next series,” Meadows said. “Never count us out. You have seen it all year and we were able to do it again tonight, so it was pretty fun.” “I was good with everything — my timing, with my delivery, my rhythm was there,” Pérez said. “We the series, and that is a good thing.”“Make a mistake to Profar — it is supposed to be down and away and it ends up up and in and he hits it for a homer. Same to Bogaerts,” Mize said. “At that point I am kind of just resetting and telling myself hold it here. Hold it here for as long as you can.”
