News positive on injury to Braves' Acuna Jr.

 

          Sunday night was no doubt a sleepless one for many in the Atlanta Braves organization and certainly in the fan base.

          Rookie sensation Ronald Acuna Jr. was hurt, and it looked bad. ACL?

          Alas, the news wasn’t devastating: a mild ACL sprain, and contusions in the lower back and left knee. Updated.

          Rather than be done for the year, he’ll be re-evaluated after 10 days on the disabled list.

          Acuna has cooled off to a .265 average with five homers in 29 games, but has dazzled a few times in that span.

Ronald Acuna Jr. leaves the game under his own power after he stumbles beating out a single in the top of the 7th inning
