Facing the Washington Nationals, Langeliers made all kinds of MLB history with a 5-for-6, three-homer performance in a 16-7 blowout win. It might have not even been close to the best performance by an A's hitter in the past two weeks, but it was still enough to put him in rare company.

Shea Langeliers became just the second catcher in MLB history to hit three home runs out of the leadoff spot while leading the Athletics to a 16-7 road win over the Washington Nationals on Tuesday.

The Athletics’ Shea Langeliers has become the fourth catcher to have two three-homer games after belting three against the Washington Nationals.
