Matt Olson is not only in the midst of his best season with the Atlanta Braves, but also the best season of his career. He just hit his 50th home run of the season, being one shy of the Braves record, but it goes beyond just the power.
Olson’s currently hitting a home run once per every 10.9 at bats, which would be second all-time (in a single season) in a long Braves franchise behind the legend Hank Aaron who hit one every 10.5 at bats in 1971. In that season Aaron had an incredible season, but only played 139 games.
