Los Angeles Angels outfielder Jose Siri put up two stunning highlight-reel plays this week.
In one of the most unusual back-to-back performances imaginable, Siri robbed a grand slam one day and then hit a grand slam of his own the very next game.
The sequence began against Siri’s former team, the Tampa Bay Rays.
With the bases loaded and two outs in the third inning, Rays infielder Taylor Walls sent a drive toward the left-field corner that appeared destined to clear the fence.
Instead, Siri tracked it down and made a spectacular leaping catch, stealing a grand slam and preventing four runs from crossing the plate.
Less than 24 hours later, Siri found himself in a nearly identical situation, except this time he was standing in the batter’s box.

Facing the Colorado Rockies at Angel Stadium, the Angels loaded the bases with two outs in the third inning. Siri jumped on a Kyle Freeland pitch and crushed it down the left-field line for a go-ahead grand slam, flipping his bat as the ball sailed into the seats.
The blast was Siri’s second career grand slam and highlighted another strong performancesince being called upfrom Triple-A Salt Lake on May 16.
