This performance was insane. After telling Don Zimmer that his back was sore and he might not be able to play that day, Nate Colbert hit a solo shot, two two-run blasts, a three-run dinger and a grand slam before the night was over. And apparently he barely missed another two-run homer when he walked after hitting one in the upper deck just foul of the left field foul pole.
