A recent question asked what major league player never yielded a grand slam. Since it did ask for "player" and not "pitcher" there are a great many men who qualify as an answer, and I blithely noted "every non-pitcher" in my reply.
Mea culpa, I've since recalled one player (there may be more but this one I know of), typically an infielder, who was called to the mound once in his major league career and managed to serve up the big helping of salami. I'll even add it happened in the mid-1990s. Name the "pitcher", the grand slam batter, and the final score of the game (or I'll accept the box score).

Not Gaetti; he did serve up a solo homer to Philadelphia's Marlon Anderson in the last of his three pitching appearances, in 1999.
Not Ankiel -- he really was a pitcher first time around.
Year was 1996.
