He played 6 games that year, with 4 hits in 19 at-bats.

2007

In 2007, he had the lowest fielding percentage of all NL catchers (.986.)

On September 29, 2007, the second to last game of the season in a game against the New York Mets, Olivo charged across the diamond and attempted to throw a punch at Jose Reyes (instead hitting Sandy Alomar Sr. who blocked the punch) starting a bench-clearing brawl between the teams.

He was ejected from the game for starting the brawl and Reyes stayed in the game.
