Henry Bolte, Breyson Guedez, and Nick Kurtz each launched home runs on consecutive pitches from San Diego's Michael King during the Athletics' 13-9 victory over the Padres on Friday. Bolte's 401-foot three-run shot to right field in the fourth inning set the tone, while Guedez followed with a 450-foot drive on his first pitch. Kurtz capped the sequence with a left-field blast on the next delivery. King, who allowed the trio of homers, struggled through the inning, giving up 10 runs across the three innings.

The game marked a rare offensive outburst for the Athletics, who had scored 10 or fewer runs in 12 of their previous 15 games.
