On July 21, 1995 — Archi Cianfrocco became the first player since at least 1914 (and still the only through the 2015 season) with 6 RBI in a 9-inning or shortened game in which the player entered the game in the 7th inning or later. He actually entered in the 8th inning, hitting a pinch-hit grand slam off Steve Bedrosian to give the Padres a 4-2 lead. He added a 2-run single in the 9th off Mike Stanton to beat the Braves 9-6.
