A’s Rookie Nick Kurtz Hits FOUR Home Runs in One Game to Make History
since April 23rd. That’s the day he made his major league debut. Now he goes inside out deep to left. Four. Forget about that baseball. Come on. It’s It’s ridiculous. His 20th of the year. Make that 39 extra base hits for Curts on the year. And that is a screamer to left. Five to nothing. Out of the ballpark by Nick Kirks. I mean, that’s an 82 mph back door breaking ball that he absolutely melts. One, two, high in the air deep left center field. Traveling back is Hmel and it is off the wall. Cortez coming around to score and Curts has a double to the deepest part of the ballpark. Churn it up. Big Amish. 01 in the air to deep left. Houston, you do have a problem. His name is the big Amish. [Applause] This kid is incredible. 10-2, his second home run of the night, his 21st of the year. And the Astro Faithful are fed up with Curts. And how easy this comes, right? Change up a way that he stays on. And it’s really just a poke of the bat. I mean, that is just a flip of the wrist. And again, that looks like it comes off the bat of a first pitch. Oh my goodness. It’s unbelievable. This kid is on another planet. [Applause] [Music] And for very good reason. We can start with three of them. Here’s the last one. 97 mph fastball. Top shelf. Churned and burned on. Raise a bar and raise a fast ball. The big Amish can do it all. Hammer time. Second deck. Swinging a drive deep to left. He’s done it four times. [Applause] What a magical night for the big Amish. Smooth as butter, baby. Shut it up. Incredible. Simply incredible. Oh my god. Oh my god. [Applause] You go ahead and add the humble chapter to the book. Just another special, something out of a story book. Six for six, four homers and six RBI’s, six runs scored. He has more than introduced himself to the world here tonight. Chris Nick Curts tonight has as many home runs as the Houston Astros have total hits.
Athletics rookie Nick Kurtz had one of the greatest games in MLB history, going 6-6 with 4 home runs and 8 RBIs. He’s the first rookie to hit four homers in one game and the 20th player to ever accomplish the feat.

ARE U KIDDING ME
The Next Jason Giambi in Oakland ? π₯π₯π―βππ€―π§π€π€¨π΅ππππΈ
OK, so even as a 'no idea what happened' Brit I get it. It must have been just the best to have witnessed that in the stadium!
"There are rich teams and there are poor teams. Then there's 50ft of crap. And then there's us."
Seem to me like half of MLB have german ancestors….
OK, last one was from a position player whoβs pitching?
Genuin question:
I don't watch a lot of baseball, but I like watching highlights.
The pitch at 3:02, it doesn't look like the pitcher is even trying? It looks so slow and badly placed. Has he given up? Is he just not good enough? Whats going on?
…And THE Most impressive thing is that he did it against the CHEATSTROS – who get away with cheating so much even the KC CHEATSπ are envious !
3:42 I mean, that was just a terrible throw, wasn't it? Looks like my lil sister could throw a faster ball.
That's nothing. My uncle Rico can throw a football π over that mountain π
Only mlb 2025 can make a 4 homer game boring as hell.
2 feet short of 5 HR in juan game is bananas
Saved best for last
Love the batting practice toss for the last one. Uh.
Al Bundy scored 4 touchdowns for Polk high in One game.
Great performance but what was with that last pitch???
3 HRs oppo into the exact same section is wild by itself
Nice future yankee right here.
The last one was a 78-mph changeup outside the strike zone he took opposite field. That's power, folks.
Does no one else find his name to be funny as fuck.
With that name he's born to be a starπ
A's have two insane rookies. Wilson and Kurtz are next level
He missed being the first player in history to hit 5 in a game by about 2 feet. Unreal how easily he generates power to the opposite field. Fun talent to watch!
Great now my mariners have to face this upsurge guantlet. Cmon my boys aint got a world series. Rangers hot as well. Fuck me
The A's are never counted out. Something bout this team since the 80s
Not getting to excited because the Aβs will trade him away for a couple of underperforming prospects in the next year or two..
He'll look good in pinstripes next year.
To be fair, that last pitch felt like the pitcher was like "Whatever, fuck it"
Don't underestimate Nick Kurtz's power! This is a thing that may never be broken!
the 3rd HR was justt CRUSHED!!
uhhh Maybe dontt pitch tto him?
I bet he is un-vaccinated…….amzing what the human body can do when it is not sabotaged at birth with poison…..
So itβs ok to say repeatedly, βBig Amishβ, but what if he was was Jewish or Catholic? Are we going to repeatedly say, β Big ??β by the commentator? And yes, Amish is a form of religion..
stupid looking announcers
