Kody Clemens hit a walk-off grand slam with two outs and two strikes in the bottom of the ninth inning Thursday, lifting the Minnesota Twins to a 4-3 victory over the Kansas City Royals, according to ESPN.

The hit came after Royals pitcher Noah Cameron had no-hit the Twins through six innings. Minnesota managed to piece together enough baserunners late to set up Clemens' decisive swing, which gave the Twins a win they appeared unlikely to earn for most of the game.
