Dave Kingman A's

On April 16, 1984 — In his first three at-bats, Oakland A’s Dave Kingman hits three home runs, including a grand slam, driving in eight runs against the Seattle Mariners in a 9-6 victory. ‘Sky King’ will compile five three-round-tripper games during his 16-year career, second only to Johnny Mize, who accomplished the feat six times from 1938 to 1950 while with the Cardinals and Yankees.

Kingman’s blast comes off starter Matt Young in the 1st and 3rd inn, and off Ed Vande Berg in the 5th inn.
