The Minnesota Twins selected Corey Koskie in the 26th round of the 1994 MLB Draft.
He will become a member of the Twins Hall of Fame this summer.
Now, a few decades later, Koskie's son is making a name for himself.
Caleb Koskie is playing college baseball for the University of Indiana. The freshman notched the first hit of his college career on Monday, and it wasn't just any hit: It was a grand slam.

That's some great opposite-field power from the Hoosiers freshman.
It came in a key spot, too, only leading Big Ten rival Michigan State 1-0 at the time.
The elder Koskie hit two grand slams in his MLB career. His youngest son now has a salami in Division I baseball.
