Thursday 9/15/1971: Gary Nolan pitches 2-hit shutout against Montreal
MONTREAL - Cincinnati's right-hander Gary Nolan is a great pitcher. And he once again showed his stuff, blanking Montreal on just 2 hits. It's his 5th shutout this season, and the 14th time he has done it in his career. Nolan (16-9) fanned 4 and walked 4, throwing 116 pitches. 'I was able to keep´em off balance. That certainly helped.' Cincinnati's shortstop Hal Lanier collected 2 hits in 4 trips to the plate, hitting a homerun, and collecting 3 RBI. That was enough to support the brilliant performance of Nolan. Cincinnati improved its record to 91-54, scoring 3 runs on 6 hits.
