The odds of a player hitting two grand slams in one inning off the same pitcher are effectively astronomical, estimated around 1 in 75 billion... yet...
#OTD 1999 - Fernando Tatis hits two grand slams in one inning off the same pitcher!!!
He also collects 8 RBIs in one inning to break the old record of 6.

Sometimes I think we just value the wrong things as sports fans. Willie McGee hit 79 homers in 18 years and he was more fun and exciting than a clown car full of 30-homer steroid freaks.

In 1959, a cement mixer with a full load of cement, wrecked near Winganon, Oklahoma.
By the time a tow truck came to haul it away, all of the cement had hardened inside of the mixer.
The tow truck was not able to remove all the wreckage at the same time because of the weight, and decided to haul only the cab/frame, and would come back for the detached mixer later - which never happened.
Today, 65 years later, it still sits where it fell.
Locals have painted it and added "rocket thrusters" to make it look like a space capsule.
