Grissom Slugs Braves to 18-10 Win
The Atlanta Braves handed the Minnesota Twins a loss at Atlanta Fulton County Stadium. The final score was 18-10. Marquis Grissom was named player of the game for Atlanta. In addition to his 1 single and 2 home runs, he scored 3 runs and drove in 6. He also added 1 walk. The winner was Atlanta reliever Sterling Hitchcock, now 4-0. The loser was William VanLandingham. Minnesota is still trying to get off the schneid, having lost 7 in a row.

Grissom put Atlanta up, 18-10, when he hit a 3-run home run off Jerry Spradlin in the bottom of the eighth. His 10th home run of the season helped the Braves capture the win.

"It was one of those games where both teams were swinging the bat well," Grissom said.
