Game Thread #151: A’s at Tigers

Related Topics: Plate appearance

How about that Matt Olson, huh? The rookie has hit a home run in 4 consecutive games, bringing his season total to 22 in fewer than 200 plate appearances. That’s 12 as many as Aaron Judge in only about 13 of the plate appearances, and he has hit the most home runs by a rookie in September ever with 11 games left to play. Between Matt Olson, Matt Chapman, and Matt Joyce, the Mattletics really have something special going.

Meanwhile, news on the stadium front is also mostly good.
