Wednesday, August 5th , 2026
Shane Nelson of the Rockies was unstoppable in his team's 14-3 victory over the Texas(ACL) Rangers at Globe Life Field. He battered them for 5 hits in 6 at-bats.
"Boy, I was on the mark today," said the Colorado(ACL) second baseman after the game. "I could see the ball real well. It's a great feeling to do this. And besides, 5-for-6 won't hurt your batting average like 0-for-5 will."
Shane Nelson singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, flied out in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Joe Davis in the 9th.
This season, Nelson has banged out 76 hits in 193 at-bats for a .394 average with 8 home runs. He is getting on base at a .473 pace and his totals also include 40 RBIs and 44 runs scored.
