==Life and career==
O'Sullivan was born in New York City on July 23, 1986 to Richard and Susan O'Sullivan. In high school, he played baseball as well as football. After high school, however, he made a full commitment to baseball. He played college baseball at Southeastern Missouri State, and was drafted in the 1st round, 13th overall in 2008 by the Ottawa Capitals.
A four-time all star, O'Sullivan is known as a slugger who hits for extreme power. In his rookie year, he hit .211 with 25 home runs and 70 RBI, the latter two being the best numbers in the Eastern Conference, but he also struck out 172 times. He won the Eastern Conference batting title a year later by hitting .275, by far the best average of his career (his next best was .238, in Seasons 9 and 10). In his nine-year career, O'Sullivan has had more than 100 hits and more than 60 RBI in every season. He set a career-best mark for RBI last year, with 80.
