Kevin Kouzmanoff (born July 25, 1981) is an American former professional baseball third baseman. He played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Cleveland Indians, San Diego Padres, Oakland Athletics, Colorado Rockies and Texas Rangers.
Kouzmanoff is the third of only four players in history to hit a grand slam in his first major league at-bat, after Bill Duggleby in 1898 and Jeremy Hermida in 2005,[1] and followed by Daniel Nava in 2010.[2] Both Kouzmanoff and Nava accomplished this feat on the first pitch they saw.
Kouzmanoff is of Macedonian descent.[3][4][5]
