Posted on    by

Jose Ramirez‘s grand slam against the Royals was the 13th in franchise history at Kauffman Stadium.

Most Grand Slams by Road Stadium:

  • Fenway Park, 15
  • Kauffman Stadium, 13
  • Guaranteed Rate, 13
  • Tiger Stadium, 12
  • Yankee Stadium (old), 11

This isn’t too surprising since Kauffman opened in 1973, but they actually didn’t hit their first grand slam there since 1998 (Manny Ramirez off Glendon Rusch).
