Monday 9/5/1970: Philadelphia's Nate Colbert slams three taters

Philadelphia's first baseman Nate Colbert accomplished that feat in a 12-2 win over Los Angeles (N). His 1st blast, a two-run homerun off Jack Dilauro in the 3rd inning, landed an estimated 359 feet from home plate. Number 2 in the 4th inning, a shot estimated at 370 feet, cleared the wall in left field. A 340 foot drive to left field marked his 3rd bomb, a solo homerun off Diego Segui in the 9th inning. Overall he went 3 for 6, scoring three runs and collecting 6 RBI. In 1579 career at bats, he has hit 48 homeruns and collected 210 RBI.
Monday 9/5/1970: Bill Short shuts out Kansas City on 2 hits
