Rookie Power

Jason Heyward, who hit a gribby in his first major league game on the Braves' opening day, hit his 6th GRBI tody (May 19, 2010) which not only leads 2010 rookies, but ties him for 3rd overall in the league. Only one of his gribbies has been via single, the other 5 have been on doubles (3) and home runs (2).

Walking Off

I'm sure this probably isn't a record, but it still seems special. Four walk-off wins took place today, May 19, 2010. Three walkoff singles and one walkoff error.

Home Runs and Singles

Added in a few more backlog days up til April 23rd.  After three weeks of baseball we have:

75 Singles for gribbies
75 Home Runs for gribbies

Pretty interesting.  I would have assumed singles would have out-paced any other play.  Carlos Peña, who is tied for 4th in game-winning rbi's, has hit all three of his GRBI's via Home Run.
