In baseball,a grand slam is a home run hit with all three bases occupied by baserunners,thereby scoring four runs—the most possible in one play. According to The Dickson Baseball Dictionary,the term originated in the card game of contract bridge,in which a grand slam involves taking all the possible tricks.
