Homers again Friday Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 2-0 win over Arizona.

Impact Olson went back-to-back with Ozzie Albies in the ninth inning to produce the lone runs of the game. This was Olson's second long ball in as many days after he hit his first homer of the year in Thursday's 17-2 win over Arizona. The first baseman has hit at least 29 homers in each of the last seven full-length seasons, and he has played in all 162 games in four straight years, offering reliable power and availability. This season, he's batting .313 with two homers, six RBI, six runs scored and four doubles over eight contests, though he's also racked up 11 strikeouts.

Impact Olson kicked off the scoring in the contest with a first-inning, 430-foot solo shot -- his first long ball of the campaign. He later produced an RBI double as part of an eight-run fifth frame for Atlanta and added another RBI double in the ninth. Olson had been having a quiet beginning to the campaign prior to Thursday, but he's now slashing a nice-looking .321/.367/.571 with five RBI and five runs through seven games.
