THE BOSTON GLOBE, Boston, Massachusetts, May 11, 1999
* Nomar Garciaparra's 2-grand slam performance
* Only occurrence of the feat on one's home field
The top of the front page has: "Garciaparra clouts two grand slams, 2-run homer in 12-4 rout of Mariners", which announces only the occurrence in MLB modern history that a ballplayer hit two grand slams in the same game on their home field, and only the 13th time at any ballpark. The front page of the sports section has: "Slam Dance", with considerable related text and multiple photos. Great to have this Boston Red Sox report in a Boston newspaper.
The issue is in excellent condition. It is believed to be complete in multiple sections, but is being sold for the described content.
