Ryan Ward makes case for Dodgers’ roster long-term with clutch grand slam
Los Angeles Dodgers rookie Ryan Ward delivered a career milestone on Wednesday night, blasting his first Major League grand slam during the team’s road matchup against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park.
The 28-year-old outfielder and first baseman turned the game in the Dodgers’ favor when he crushed a first-pitch sweeper from Pirates reliever Carmen Mlodzinski into the right-field seats.
The homer came after Ward entered the at-bat 0-for-2 with a strikeout, making the breakthrough even more significant as he continues to compete for a long-term role on one of baseball’s deepest rosters.
MLB took to X, formerly Twitter, sharing video of the milestone moment for the outfielder.
“Ryan Ward’s first career grand slam! ”
The following story is in development and will be updated shortly.
