Nick Kurtz News: Reaches base five times

Kurtz went 3-for-4 with a double, two walks and four runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Nationals.

In a game in which the Athletics scored 16 runs, Kurtz was unable to drive anyone in despite a productive night at the dish. He did touch home plate four times, however. At just 22 years old, Kurtz has adapted to big-league pitching remarkably well and is hitting .486/.560/1.000 with eight homers, 21 RBI, 24 runs and two steals in 19 games since July 11.
