Brad Salmon gave up a pair of singles and a walk with one out in that inning to load the bases. Dustin Robinson entered and Snelling greeted him with a GRAND SLAM.

2007: The Rattlers lost 10-9 at Burlington. The Rattlers hit four home runs in the game (Kuo Hui Lo, Alex Liddi, Carlos Peguero, and Gerardo Avila). Avila’s homer in the seventh tied the game 8-8. But, Kurt Mertins hit a two-run homer in the eighth off Andrew Barb to put the Bees up 10-8. Back-to-back doubles by Lo and Peguero to start the ninth inning made the score 10-9, but Burlington held on for the win. Rattler record after this game: 16-35
A 5-3 record with a Snelling grand slam four-homer game in a loss make it an interesting day in Rattler history.
