There are few things in baseball that are more exciting than a grand slam home run.
The Miami Marlins have given fans a treat this week, hitting a pair of grand slams just days apart.
Both shifted their respective games in the Marlins favor and led to wins, which is just an added bonus.
The Marlins haven't exactly been known as an offensive ballclub in recent years but that hasn't kept the team from adding several grand slams to list.
Considering the sudden burst of salami the Marlins have brought to the plate, here are some of the recent gland slam homers that the team has hit.
Jeff Mathis' slam in the first inning was all the Marlins needed to beat San Diego on Tuesday.
Back in 2013 Mathis hit his first grand salami as a Marlin, a walkoff blast also against the Padres.
Justin Bour tied Friday's game in Arizona in the 7th with this bomb to right.
Giancarlo Stanton's 2014 walkoff homer against Seattle came with an exclamation point!
Fans will always remember the day Stanton's grand slam broke a scoreboard at Marlins Park.
Marcell Ozuna's first career grand slam just added insult to injury for the Phillies.
Just a few months later, Ozuna cracked another slam in homer-friendly Coors Field.
J.T. Realmuto made a rare visit by the Red Sox worse for the visitor by breaking the game wide open.
