About two months ago I was concerned there may not even be a 2022 MLB season. Thankfully Opening Day is a go this Thursday, so it's appropriate to kick off this weekly feature today.
With that, check out this Opening Day game from 1980 when the Milwaukee Brewers hosted the Boston Red Sox.
-------------------------------------
On Opening Day 1978, Milwaukee's Sixto Lezcano hit a grand slam homerun. Two years later in that 1980 opener, Lezcano belted a game winning grand slam in the bottom of ninth, making him the first player in MLB history to hit a grand slam on Opening Day twice.

Sixto hits a walk-off grand salami. Remember it well.
