Ernie & Sammy

They are the two greatest Cubs sluggers of all-time, and they both accomplished something memorable on this date in history.



In 1955, Ernie Banks hit his 5th grand slam of the season, becoming the first player in MLB history to accomplish that feat.






In 1999, Sammy Sosa hit his 60th home run of the season, becoming the first player in MLB history to accomplish that feat two years in a row.
