Blue Jays' Addison Barger accomplishes World Series first in Game 1

Toronto Blue Jays utility man Addison Barger entered Game 1 of the World Series on Friday night with 28 home runs in his career. None of them compared to the home run he hit in the bottom of the sixth inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers. 

With the Blue Jays already leading 5-2 and having chased starting pitcher Blake Snell, Barger was called on as a pinch-hitter with the bases loaded.

It was at that point that he clubbed an Anthony Banda pitch into the right center field stands for a grand slam.

It was a one-of-a-kind grand slam in World Series history.
