Braves' Matt Olson: Launches two homers in loss
Olson went 2-for-5 with two homers, three total RBI and a walk in Monday's extra-inning loss to the Mets.
Olson left the yard twice, demolishing a solo homer to right field off Freddy Peralta in the third inning before coming through with a game-tying, two-run shot to left field off Devin Williams in the ninth inning to force an extra frame. This was a series to remember for Olson, who homered twice in both Friday's win and Monday's loss to bookend the four-game set against the rival Mets. It has been another stellar season for the veteran first baseman, who is slashing .273/.344/.546 with 24 homers, 23 doubles, 57 RBI and 61 runs across 89 contests.

Olson is batting .276 with an .875 OPS, 20 homers, 52 RBI, 54 runs scored, 21 doubles and two stolen bases over 82 contests this season.
