Nolan Rips 3 Homers Against Ghosts Thursday, August 17th , 2051 Mark Nolan of the Toros went on a hitting spree at The Rodeo Grounds today and earned membership in the select club of hitters who have hit three home runs in a game. He blasted three into the stands in a 8-7 loss to the Casper Ghosts. "I'm not happy with the outcome of the game, but it was still a great game for me," Nolan said in the clubhouse following the loss. "I have been making solid contact lately, but not getting any lift. Today I got it up in the air and out of the ballpark. I had my home run swing down pat. Got some good pitches to hit, too." The Tucson center fielder did indeed have quite a game, collecting 3 hits in 6 at-bats, 3 RBIs and scoring 3 runs. Mark Nolan hit a solo-shot off John Manns in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off John Manns in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off John Manns in the 5th, struck out in the 7th, walked in the 9th, grounded out in the 11th, grounded out in the 13th and struck out in the 15th.
