Jerar Encarnacion Blasts Grand Slam
3 years agoMiami Marlins outfielder Jerar Encarnacion put together a great start to his MLB career. The 24-year-old was recalled on Friday with the Marlins shorthanded on outfielders. He made quite an impact by hitting a grand slam as his first career hit in the big leagues. His grand slam off right-hander Seth Lugo was enough to help the Marlins beat the New York Mets on Sunday. Encarnacion struggled at the plate in Double-A last season. It's uncertain how long he'll be up in the big leagues. Although, he should get plenty of playing time with the Marlins banged up right now.
