I didn’t know this until today.

Crazy fact:

Freddie Freeman’s historic walk-off grand slam occurred at 8:37 PM Pacific Time on October 25, 2024 at Dodger Stadium. Remarkably, this is the same time Kirk Gibson hit his iconic home run in 1988 in the same stadium. Both HRs occurred in Game 1 of a World Series game. Both HRs were in the 9th inning. Both HRs were stunning walk-offs. Both HRs are credited for setting the tone that brought victory to the Dodgers.

Both HRs landed in near the same location in shallow right field. Both hitters hobbled to the batters box with injuries that should have held each out of the game.

Both hitters are left-handed.
