Grand Slams and Game Enders

I've had some folks ask me who was the last player to hit a grand slam in the World Series after Paul Konerko's game 2 blast. Luckily, the guy who keeps track of everything related to homeruns, SABR's David Vincent published a list on SABR-L this week complete with the inning. And for good measure he threw in the walk-off homeuns as well.
