Olson went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, two runs and a walk to help the Athletics to a 6-2 victory over the Yankees on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Olson is red-hot, as this marked his seventh multi-hit effort in his last nine games -- a stretch that has seen him crank four more long balls to give him 26 on the season. The recent tear has the 25-year-old's slash line up to a healthy .267/.348/.545 across 389 plate appearances.

Olson, who went 2-for-4 with two RBI, a walk and a run in a win over the Astros on Saturday, is hitting .357 (10-for-28) with a double, three home runs, 10 RBI, two walks and four runs over his last seven games.
EDGE Analysis
Olson has churned out five multi-hit games over that span, making it one of his most productive stretches of the season. The hot hitting already has the slugger just two RBI away from equaling the 15 he compiled during all of July while also pushing his average to a solid .260.

The 25-year-old continued to show off his ability to generate power with a solo long ball in the sixth, once again off Sanchez. Olson is now slashing .262/.343/.542 with 25 long balls, 58 RBI and 45 runs scored,

Olson went 2-for-4 with a two-run double in a win over the Giants on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Olson's August surge continued with his third two-RBI tally of the last seven games. The 25-year-old only has two extra-base hits overall in August, but he's nevertheless just six home runs away from equaling the career-best 29 he slugged last season in 293 additional plate appearances.

Olson went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 2-0 win over the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Olson's fourth-inning shot -- his 23rd of the year -- accounted for the only runs for either squad in Sunday's contest. He snapped a nine-game homerless drought in what's been a disappointing start to August; he's gone 8-for-33 (.242) with one extra-base knock and nine strikeouts.

Olson went 2-for-4 with a walk in a loss to the White Sox on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Olson had one of only two multi-hit efforts for the Athletics in the contest, as he partly emerged from a 4-for-26 funk in which he'd opened August. Despite the successful night at the plate Saturday, however, Olson still hasn't notched an extra-base hit since the calendar flipped, an atypical streak that's now reached eight games.

Olson went 2-for-5 with a double, a solo home run and two RBI overall in a victory versus Milwaukee on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Olson plated Oakland's first run with a double in the third inning, then delivered his second career walkoff home run with a blast off Josh Hader in the 10th. The 25-year-old is slashing .260/.339/.549 with 22 homers and 47 RBI in 314 plate appearances this season.

Olson went 2-for-4 with an RBI infield single, a double, a walk and a run in a win over the Rangers on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Olson had a busy day at the plate, and his ninth-inning infield single brought home Chris Herrmann to tie the game. The slugger snapped an 0-for-10 slump that had encompassed his prior three games with what was his fifth multi-hit effort of July. Thanks to a hot start to the month, Olson is still hitting a solid .274 since the calendar flipped despite the aforementioned three-game skid, leading to an eight-point boost in his season average to .255.
