Matt Olson ended his regular season with a bang and brought home his first career National League Player of the Week honor.

The 28-year-old closed out his regular season going 12-for-32 and homered in four straight games, three of those coming in the pivotal series against the New York Mets. He ended his regular season with a .240/.325/.477 line.

Olson and the Braves look to carry this momentum into the postseason as the Division Series gets underway on October 11.
