The Oakland Athletics put on an impressive power display on Sunday, blasting eight home runs in an 18-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies.
Leadoff hitter Lawrence Butler accounted for three of the home runs himself and recorded a team-high six RBI.
Per ESPN, this is the first time an MLB team has hit eight homers in a single game since September 1999 when the Cincinnati Reds launched nine longballs, also against the Phillies. The Toronto Blue Jays set the MLB record with 10 home runs in a game in 1987.
