Matt Olson debuted for the Oakland A’s in 2016, and he didn’t become an everyday player until the tail end of 2017, at age 23. He immediately began etching his name into various record books, and he added another feat this week — this time in the realm of career milestones.
Olson clubbed his 100th career homer on Tuesday, making him the 19th player in Oakland history to reach the century mark. Two days later he added his 101st, pushing him up to 18th place on the team list. In all of franchise history (back through the Philadelphia years), he’s the 28th player to reach triple digits.
