Nick Kurtz

The reigning AL Rookie of the Year Award winner, Nick Kurtz, posted a season-high five RBI in a dominant Athletics victory against the Los Angeles Angels. Going 3-for-5 at the plate, the first baseman sparked a six-run third inning with an RBI single in an eventual 14-6 win. “The offense was the story, really,” Manager Mark Kotsay said postgame.
