He became the 16th Major League player to achieve the long-ball feat, and the first since Carlos Delgado did it in September 2003 for the Toronto Blue Jays.

"Other than being in the World Series, the highlight of my big-league career," Hamilton told reporters. "I've never hit three in a game before, and what a blessing that was. Then to hit four is just an awesome feeling."

Hamilton, who also doubled to go 5-for-5 in the game, also set an American League record with 18 total bases in the contest.

"Amazing," said R angers manager Ron Washington. "History was witnessed tonight."

The slugger, who can become a free agent after this season, homered in the first and third off Baltimore starter Jake Arrieta, connected in the seventh off reliever Zach Phillips and finished up by driving a shot over the center-field wall against Darren O'Day.
