    Derek Norris wasn't too surprised to hit a three-run home run on a 3-0 count in the first inning.

    The Athletics catcher was only mildly shocked when he did the same thing the next inning, in nearly the exact same situation with the same count and on the same pitch.

    Norris hit a pair of three-run home runs off Nationals starter Gio Gonzalez to back Scott Kazmir's fifth win and Oakland beat Washington 9-1 on Sunday to complete a series sweep.
