Frank Robinson smashed grand-slam homers in two successive times at bat and tied two major league records as the Orioles walloped the Senators, 12-2. The vet slugger connected off Joe Coleman in the fifth inning and off Joe Grzenda in the sixth to become only the third man in major league annals to hit bases-loaded homers and drive in a total of eight runs in two consecutive frames.
