Matt Olson Blasts Two-Run Bomb in Win
Matt Olson went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in his team's 7-1 win against the Milwaukee Brewers. The veteran also walked twice. Olson knocked in teammate Austin Riley to culminate a three-run fifth inning with a 417-foot blast to dead-center. It came off Brewers' reliever DL Hall's first pitch of the outing, and was dinger No. 14 on the season for him. The 31-year-old is sporting one of his lowest averages against righties in 2025 (.227). However, he's underperforming his .269 xBA by over 30 points (.238). Furthermore, Olson holds the best quality of contact metrics of his career -- boasting personal-bests in average exit velo (94.2 MPH) and hard-hit rate (56.3%).
