Continues power surge Olson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 4-2 victory against the Marlins on Thursday.
Impact Olson hit one of three Atlanta homers, swatting a two-run shot to right field in the first inning. The first baseman has gone deep in two straight games and in four of his past six contests, belting five homers and driving in eight runs during that span. While he's very unlikely to come close to the 54 long balls he racked up last year, Olson has given himself a shot to reach 30 homers for the fourth straight season with his recent power surge, as he's now up to 18 on the campaign.

Goes yard twice in win Olson went 2-for-4 with a walk and two solo home runs in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Brewers.
Impact The slugger took Freddy Peralta deep in the fourth inning before clobbering a Nick Mears offering in the eighth. Travis d'Arnaud followed up each blast with a homer of his own, as they became the third pair of Atlanta teammates to go back-to-back twice in a game -- Fred McGriff and David Justice accomplished the feat in 1993, with Javy Lopez and Andruw Jones also doing it in 1998. Olson's first multi-homer performance of 2024 comes as part of a hot streak that has seen him bat .290 (9-for-31) over the last eight games with four long balls and six RBI.

Homers in back-to-back games Olsen went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Sunday against the Mets.
Impact Olson's fourth-inning blast was his 15th of the season and plated three. After going nearly three weeks without a homer, Olson went deep Sunday for the second-consecutive day. He now holds a modest five-game hitting streak, batting 7-for-20 (.350) during that stretch.

Snaps out of power slump Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Phillies.
Impact Olson took rookie Michael Mercado deep in the second inning to break out of a 14-game homerless drought. It was Olson's second separate streak of 14 or more games without a homer this season, after only having one such streak all of last season. The 30-year-old entered the game in a 10-for-65 slump with just two extra-base hits and three RBI in his last 18 games, so he'll try to find some positive momentum headed into the All-Star break.
