4. Jim Palmer never allowing a grand slam in his entire career (1965-84)

Of all the Hall of Fame numbers posted by Palmer in his brilliant major league career, it still feels impossible to believe he never allowed a grand slam in 558 appearances spanning 19 seasons.

"It's the best book ever written about the modern National Football League," so says Nestor about Big Game. And that's why we love having its author Mark Leibovich back on when his New England Patriots proudly return to Baltimore for some playoff knockout style football. Now with The Atlantic, the longtime political insider for The New York Times is also heavily immersed in Trumplandia and weighs in on the ongoing Epstein saga and the usual D.C. shenanigans.
