BOSTON -- Master of the grand slam this season, Xander Bogaerts was the latest to give the Red Sox four runs with one swing.
In the bottom of the third inning against the Royals on Monday night, the shortstop hit a mammoth shot that soared near the top of the light tower above the Green Monster and on to Lansdowne Street to give the Red Sox a 6-3 lead.
The smash by Bogaerts was his second grand slam of the season and sixth for the Red Sox, tying the 1996 Expos as the only teams in history to have that many before May 1.
