As the Cubs were beating the Pirates thanks to a Frank Schwindel grand slam, the Brewers and Cardinals were locked in a slightly more meaningful September affair.
With a three-run lead, it looked like the Cardinals were going to win a critical game in their quest to hang around in the Wild Card race. But the Brewers loaded the bases, and brought pinch-hitter – and old friend – Dan Vogelbach to the plate. And, yup, he did the ultimate grand slam thing to walk off the Cardinals:

David Bote’s will always be better, obviously, but it’s pretty funny to see Vogelbach do that to the Cardinals. Today has been fun.
