The Athletics take on the Houston Astros after Nick Kurtz hit four home runs on Friday in a 15-3 win over the Astros.
The 22-year-old rookie sensation was selected fourth overall by the Athletics just over a year ago in the 2024 MLB Draft. Kurtz was called up to the major leagues quickly due to his exceptional performance in the minor leagues and his advanced offensive approach, leading to the Athletics believing in his success at the major-league level.
One night after a performance for the ages from Nick Kurtz, all eyes were on the Athletics rookie first baseman Saturday night to see what he might have in store for an encore.
