Napoli having a grand time

Mike Napoli just clobbered a grand slam over the left-field fence, his third HR of the season, to give the Angels a 4-0 lead over the Cleveland Indians in the second inning. After hitting just 10 home runs last season, Napoli looks to have found the form he displayed in his rookie season of 2006 when he pounded 16 home runs even though he was in the minor leagues for the forst month. It was the first slam of Napoli's career and his 4 RBI already are a career high for one game.

Napoli's grand slam follows one by Torii Hunter on Monday when he beat the Indians in the ninth inning. It is the first time the Angels have collected two grand slams in the same series since David Eckstein had grand slams on consecutive days, April 27 and 28, 2002 against the Toronto Blue Jays.
