  • Braves' Matt Olson: Clubs homer No. 20

    Olson went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to the Mets.

    The first baseman took Cionel Perez deep in the fifth inning, Olson's third homer in the last three games and his 20th of the season -- tying him for fourth in MLB behind Yordan Alvarez (24), Kyle Schwarber (24) and Byron Buxton (21). Through nine games to begin June, Olson is batting .333 (12-for-36) with four home runs, six RBI and nine runs.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Belts pair of homers in loss

    Olson went 2-for-4 with two home runs, a walk and three RBI in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the White Sox.

    Olson wasted little time making an impact, opening the scoring with a two-run homer off opener Brandon Eisert in the first inning. Olson came right back in his next plate appearance and launched a solo shot, giving him his first multi-homer game of the season. The first baseman has been swinging the bat well lately, collecting four homers over his last 13 games while batting .302 during that stretch. Olson is now up to 19 home runs on the year, trailing only Kyle Schwarber for the National League lead, and he owns a .271 average and .903 OPS through 67 games.

Olson is powering these stats by being in the 95th percentile of baseball in expected slugging (.549) and average exit velocity (93.5 mph).

    Olson went 2-for-4 with a double, a solo home run and an additional run scored during Atlanta's 4-3 win over Toronto on Tuesday.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Swats 15th homer in win

    Olson went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer and a hit-by-pitch in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Red Sox.

    With Atlanta trailing 2-0 in the top of the fifth inning, Olson took a first-pitch sinker from lefty Ranger Suarez deep to right field for his 15th homer of the season. It snapped a 13-game home run drought for the 32-year-old, who had seen his average drop 33 points in that span. Olson has just four multi-hit games this month. He's slashing .263/.343/.554 with the 15 home runs, 44 RBI, 38 runs scored, one stolen base and a 26:57 BB:K across 242 plate appearances this season.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Adds insurance with homer

    Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Dodgers.

    Olson is up to five homers over nine games in May, though all of them have been solo shots. The first baseman has a total of 14 homers through 41 contests overall, nearly halfway to his total of 29 from each of the last two regular seasons. He's added 36 RBI, 36 runs scored, 15 doubles, one stolen base and a .296/.377/.654 slash line this year while regularly batting in the heart of the order.

  • Braves' Matt Olson: Rare steal in win

    Olson went 2-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Dodgers.

    Olson had gone hitless in consecutive contests for the first time this season entering Saturday. He snapped that drought with a two-hit game and also picked up his first steal of the campaign as a bonus. The first baseman has been one of the most consistent hitters in baseball so far in 2026, batting .297 with a 1.025 OPS, 13 home runs, 35 RBI, 35 runs scored and 15 doubles. Don't expect much speed out of him -- he hasn't stolen more than one base in a season since he swiped four bags in 2021.
