David Bote’s 2018 walk-off grand slam is one of those baseball moments that feels impossible to recreate. Down 3–0 in the bottom of the 9th, with two outs and the bases loaded, Bote hit a walk-off grand slam to win it 4–3. And of course, there was the iconic call: “Did he get it? DID HE GET IT? SANTA MARIA!” It wasn’t even a playoff game, but the moment had everything: two outs, bases loaded, down three, bottom of the 9th, and a walk-off grand slam at Wrigley Field. It became one of those calls permanently attached to a baseball moment. So even though Austin Riley got his own “Santa Maria” yesterday on that three-run homer in the playoffs, it’ll never be that Santa Maria. Bote’s has two outs, a walk-off, a grand slam, and that call. - follow ( slugger.report ) for insane baseball content - #baseball #mlb #baseballplays #davidbote #santamaria
