J.P. Crawford

Prospect hits ridiculous inside-the-park grand slam

Phillies prospect J.P. Crawford hit an inside-the-park grand slam on Wednesday against the Gwinnett Braves, but it was made possible by one of the more incredible slides we've ever seen.

Crawford's drive to center took a crazy bounce off the wall, which easily cleared the bases. But Crawford wasn't satisfied with a bases-clearing triple. He was going for the full, inside-the-park grand slam and nobody was going to stop him.
