Nick Kurtz -- the Athletics rookie first baseman known as Big Amish -- has an absolutely monster game at the dish on Friday night against the Houston Astros.

Among first basemen, Kurtz is tied for fourth in home runs, funnily enough with Matt Olson and Tyler Soderstrom with 18 on the year. Topping the leaderboard is Pete Alonso of the Mets with 21, while Detroit's Spencer Torkelson is right there with him. One back of that duo is Michael Busch of the Chicago Cubs.

Still holding a sizable lead for American League Rookie of the Year coming out of the All-Star break in MLB.com’s most recent poll last week, Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson may have just officially been overtaken by a new favorite -- his teammate Nick Kurtz.
