Grand Slam pinball rules and strategy

The goal

Build the numbered sequence, put runners on base, and collect A, B and C to light different replay opportunities. Grand Slam tracks baseball runs separately from its numerical score.

  1. Numbers 1 through 9: Hit the numbers in order. Completing the sequence lights one number for Special. Collect the lit Special rollover to earn one replay.

  2. Put runners on base: A ball entering a hole scores 300,000 and adds a runner, increasing the value of a home run. Any two runners on base light the top rollover for Special; collect it while lit for one replay.

  3. Collect A, B and C: Hit all three lettered rollovers to light the two bottom rollovers for Special. A lit Special rollover awards one replay. The A and C rollovers also light contacts marked 100,000 When Lit.
