According to legend Deion Sanders, baseball is the hardest sport. As when it comes to hitting, the job becomes more difficult. Because of this, only a few can find success at plate consistently adding to their records. MLB legend Alex Rodriguez is one of those who did the same and became a part of undying history. It includes 696 home runs, 3000 hits, 2000 RBIs, and more, which made him a special player. But this is not all. The former New York Yankees slugger had another record that he still holds even after retiring in 2016.

Undoubtedly, Rodriguez is one stalwart of the game. It is visible in his records and wins, including multiple MVP awards, all-star selections, and more. But there is another record that continues to add to his MLB stardom. The 2009 champion had a revisit for the same, which he created a decade back, ending a drought of decades to get his name in the record books.

Alex Rodriguez a Leader With Most Career Grand Slam

Hitting a home run is a special thing. When it comes to the grand slam, the importance of the record increases immensely. But given the repute, it is not an elementary thing to do. It is visible from the fact that even The Home Run King Barry Bonds and The Captain Clutch Derek Jeter do not find their names in the top 10 of the list. But Alex Rodriguez has his name at the top.

An Instagram post shared by the nyyhistory pointed towards it. They shared, “On this day in 2013, Alex Rodriguez makes history by hitting his 24th career grand slam giving him the most of any player. He surpassed Lou Gehrig who previously held the record since 1938. Arod would go on to hit one more bringing his career total to 25.”
