Nick Kurtz, a 22-year-old rookie for the Oakland Athletics, etched his name in MLB history Friday night. He became the first rookie ever to hit four home runs in a single game, achieving the feat in just his 66th career game. His performance against the Houston Astros also tied the major league record for total bases (19) in a single game. Kurtz's incredible night included a 6-for-6 performance at the plate, with six runs and eight RBIs, making him the youngest player ever to accomplish this feat.
