The injury bug has bitten the Atlanta Braves again as Ronald Acuña Jr. suffered a knee injury while trying to flag down a fly ball off the bat of Jazz Chisholm during the bottom of the fifth inning in Saturday’s game in Miami. Acuña leaped to try and make a play but landed awkwardly and appeared to jam his right leg. He immediately grabbed his right knee and laid on the warning track.
After being attended to by Atlanta’s training staff, Acuña tried to walk off the field but was unable to make it all the way back into the infield.
