Matt Olson reached 300 career home runs during the Atlanta Braves' 5-4 loss to the Seattle Mariners at T-Mobile Park on May 4, 2026. The milestone makes Olson the latest player to join the exclusive 300-home run club in his 11th major league season.
Olson began his career with Oakland in 2016, spending six seasons with the Athletics before joining the Braves in 2022. He appeared in 575 games with Oakland from 2016-2021, then has appeared in 648 games across four seasons with Atlanta. His most productive seasons came after the move to Atlanta, where he has established himself as one of the game's premier power hitters.
The milestone home run came during a closely contested game at T-Mobile Park, though the Braves fell short in a 5-4 defeat to the Mariners. Olson is batting .300 with 12 home runs and 32 RBI through 36 games in the 2026 season.
With 300 home runs now in the books, Olson approaches his next potential milestone in doubles, where he sits at 265 career two-baggers and needs 35 more to reach 300. His career numbers include 1,197 hits, 840 RBI, and a .258 batting average across 1,259 games.
