Should a batter hit a grand slam home run to end a game (a so-called walk off grand slam), the batter would be credited with 4 RBIs, no matter what the score was at the time. When a home run ends a game, all runs count, unlike another base hit that scores the winning run or runs. In that case only enough runs that put the team ahead counts..not so for home runs.
Barry Bonds is Baseball's all time home run leader with 762 career home runs.
If a batter hits a home run, he can automatically run around all the bases and the team gets a point. If there are any runners already on the bases, then they count as points too. This is why you can have two-run home runs and 3-run home runs. If the bases are loaded, and the player at bat hits a home run, then the team gets four points. This is called a grand slam.
