3. However, there is a footnote:
STATS LLC confirmed that Cruz’s shot was the first slam to end a postseason game—with a postscript. Robin Ventura sent a tiebreaking drive over the fence to finish a New York Mets victory against Atlanta in the 1999 NLCS, but was swarmed by teammates between first and second.

Ventura never made it around the bases and was officially credited with a single. His 15th-inning drive for a 4-3 Mets win in Game 5 came to be known as ”the grand slam-single.”
