Make it six

Kevin Mench added his fifth conseutive homer yesterday and then a grand slam today against the Oakland Athletics to make it six straight. The five straight set a native Delawarean record, the six straight a Texas Rangers record. The major league record is 8, held by Don Mattingly, Dale Long and Ken Griffey, Jr.

Mench and the Rangers travel to Cleveland tomorrow to take on the Indians. Mench has one career home run at Jacobs Field, a two-run blst off of Scott Elarton last July.

Exciting stuff.
