(The Sports Xchange) - After Chris Davis was called out on strikes on a full-count earlier in the game, the last thing the Baltimore Orioles first baseman was going to do on a 3-2 pitch with the bases loaded in the 10th inning on Wednesday was go down looking.

So he swung, and then he watched.

Davis belted reliever Arnold Leon's full-count pitch over the 388-foot sign in left-center field for a grand slam, delivering the Orioles a 7-3 victory over the Oakland Athletics.
