PHOENIX (AP)—The Arizona Diamondbacks came home and created a new way to celebrate big hits.

Now that “The Snake” has started rolling, there may be no stopping it.

Changing the complexion of the NL division series with a powerful display, the Diamondbacks hit another grand slam among their team-record four homers to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 10-6 Wednesday night and force Game 5.

Outgunned by Milwaukee’s “Beast Mode” in the series’ first two games, the Diamondbacks came up with “The Snake” after returning to the desert in an 0-2 hole.

The brainchild of catcher Miguel Montero(notes), the hand gesture—a cupped right hand that makes a striking motion—has taken over the series as Arizona has bashed its way toward what may be its greatest comeback in a season filled with them.

Roberts’ drive made Arizona the first team in major league history to hit grand slams in four straight home games (regular and postseason), according to STATS LLC and the SABR home run log.
