In baseball, a Grand Slam is a home run that wins the game

The answer is False.

Explanation

A Grand Slam is a home run hit with the bases loaded (all three bases occupied), scoring four runs which is the maximum possible in a single play. The term was borrowed from the card game bridge, where a grand slam means winning all 13 tricks in a hand, representing a complete and maximum victory.
