Cracks two solo homers
Langeliers went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs during the Athletics' 3-2 loss to the Blue Jays on Friday.
Analysis
Langeliers provided all of the offense for the Athletics on Opening Day, with the All-Star catcher blasting solo home runs in the fourth and ninth innings off Kevin Gausman and Jeff Hoffman, respectively. It was Langeliers' second multi-homer game since 2025 and the seventh in his four-plus-year major-league career. The 28-year-old catcher is looking to build off his strong 2025 campaign, during which he posted a .861 OPS with 31 home runs, 72 RBI and seven steals across 523 plate appearances.
