Caleb Durbin, Boston Red Sox third baseman, continued his remarkable turnaround with a grand slam in a 14-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox at Fenway Park. The first career grand slam for Durbins came just two weeks after he said he "blacked out" after a home run against the Baltimore Orioles. The grand slam was DurbIN's 11th homer of the season, matching his total from all of last year. The turnaround has also coincided with a fan favorite season, batting.304 with 10 home runs and 27 RBI.
