Jabari Blash went 2-for-3 with a walk and a grand slam, El Paso's second grand slam of the road trip and third of the season, with Jose Pirela and Collin Cowgill hitting the others. The Chihuahuas had four homers in the game, one shy of a team record, with Franchy Cordero, Rocky Gale and Rafael Ortega also going deep Monday.
