Ronald Acuña Jr. leaves game with calf tightness

Pretty much the only thing that could put a damper on Ronald Acuña Jr.’s march towards more and more history? Injury. Unfortunately, that’s what took him out of the eighth inning of Friday night’s game against the Marlins.

Acuña hit into an inning-ending play to end the top of the eighth, and appeared to lose his balance running out of the box. He took the field in the bottom of the inning, but left with the Braves’ trainer before play started in the frame. Fortunately, the Braves are calling this a precautionary removal.
