On May 10, 2023, during a game against the Oakland Athletics, Volpe hit his first career grand slam, a 419-foot, 107.4 MPH blast to centerfield off A's reliever Rico Garcia in only 38 games. He became the Yankees' first rookie to hit a grand slam in a game at the shortstop position. Volpe also became the youngest Yankees player (22 years and 12 days old) to hit a grand slam at Yankee Stadium (any version of the stadium), making it a 100-year-old record. The only Yankees younger than Volpe to ever hit a grand slam in any other ballpark were Mickey Mantle (4 times) and Melky Cabrera.
