Tucupita Marcano's Grand Slam Propels Padres to Victory

San Diego Padres' infielder Tucupita Marcano hit his first career grand slam on Saturday, leading his team to a victory over the Texas Rangers.

Marcano, 23, has been a bright spot for the Padres this season, batting .270 with six home runs and 23 RBIs. His grand slam came in the fourth inning of Saturday's game, giving the Padres a 5-0 lead. The Padres went on to win the game 7-3.

Marcano's grand slam was a welcome sight for the Padres, who have been struggling offensively in recent weeks. The team has lost four of its last five games, and is now 29-32 on the season.
