He waited almost a good minute letting the fans tell the story instead of talking over the noise. That's what good announcers do.

This is pretty much the fantasy of every boy who ever dreamed of playing in the big leagues.

Bases loaded. Bottom 9. 2 Out. Down by 3. The Ultimate Grand Slam

[CubsBaseball]

What a season he has put along so far, from almost quitting baseball completely to hitting a walk-off grand slam at Wrigley Field. Keep it up David Bote!

The hit that earned David Bote $15 million.

David Bote is from our town of Longmont, CO. My son and I went to a Cubs away game at Coors Field in Denver and Bote played. It was cool to see his photo, name, and hometown, Longmont, CO on the big screen.

Wow. I remember watching this game, feels like it was recent. I was actually supposed to go to Wrigley Field on this day with my dad but changed plans last second, unfortunately.

That's cool to see David Bote's walk off grand slam at Wrigley Field in August of 2018 on YOUTUBE.

2 outs, and 2 Strikes and just enough guys on base to win the game with one swing of the bat. Absolute baseball Hollywood! Well done Bote! Blue Jays fan.

You know what.

This is actually the first time in major league history a two out, bottom of the night, two strike, behind by three walk off grand slam that has been hit.
