Wikipedia - "In the sport of baseball, a grand slam is a home run hit with all the bases occupied by baserunners, thereby scoring four runs—the most possible on a single play. According to The Dickson Baseball Dictionary, the term originated in the card game of contract bridge, in which a grand slam involves taking all the possible tricks. The word slam, by itself, is usually connected with a loud sound, particularly of a door being closed with excess force; thus, slamming the door on one's opponent(s)."
