WATCH: Matt Olson launches a three-run homer to get the Braves on the board

Matt Olson hit a two-out moon shot to give the Braves three runs.

The Braves got to a quick 4-0 hole after the Phillies put up a four spot in the first inning. 

The Braves were able to answer with a three-run inning in the top of the third, thanks to a two-out bomb from Matt Olson.  

Ronald Acuña Jr. and Nicky Lopez were both on base, which is what made Olson bomb a three-run jack. 

This homerun left the bat at 104 miles per hour and traveled 386 feet. 

Two out RBI's are huge, and Olson was able to deliver a big homer to get the Braves back in this ball game. 

Let's take a look at Olson's three-run homer that got the Braves back in the ball game.
