  • NC Dinos first baseman Blaine hit a seventh-inning grand slam against the KIA Tigers at Changwon NC Park, helping his team win 7-2.
  • The home run extended his streak to two consecutive games, prompting hopes that he is beginning to justify NC’s decision to sign him after releasing its home run king.

Blaine’s seventh-inning grand slam sealed NC Dinos’ 7-2 victory over the KIA Tigers on April 1 at Changwon NC Park, giving the first baseman home runs in two straight games.

Blaine started at first base and batted fourth. With NC leading 3-1, he launched a grand slam that put the game out of reach. The performance offered a glimpse of the ambitious pickup NC brought in after releasing its home run king, though he still has plenty to improve.

After going a decade without tee batting, Blaine changed his routine. He may finally be showing why NC signed him.
