Ronald Acuña Jr. didn't take long to get things started in Wednesday's matchup between the Atlanta Braves and Athletics.
The Braves needed something to go their way after a rough stretch of games. They lost five consecutive contests, losing their way in the NL standings.
What they needed is what Acuna provided as he got things started with a solo shot to left field. This ignited a four-run lead in the first inning for the visitors thanks to his efforts.
