COLORS KEY | FULL OAKLAND ATHLETICS OUTLOOK
Matt Olson surpassed elite company by hitting his 22nd homer against a lefty during one season by a same-handed hitter. Barry Bonds and Ken Griffey Jr. previously held the record with 21 each, and are widely regarded as two of the best left-handed hitters of all time. By passing them in the record books, Olson has created a league of his own as he broke a key record that was possessed by some notable names, which shows his power-hitting ability against same-handed pitchers.
