All it took was one pitch for Major League Baseball to be reminded of what it was missing in #Braves Ronald Acuña Jr. for the past 362 days. #BravesCountry atlantanewsfirst.com/2025/05/24/ron…
One week from tomorrow, baseball takes over the Last Great Colosseum. Let’s make history! ⚾️🔥 #SpeedwayClassic25 | @Braves | @Reds | @MLB
The #Braves today reinstated INF Austin Riley from the injured list and optioned INF Nacho Alvarez Jr. to Triple-A Gwinnett.
42-year-old Justin Verlander ending his 16-start winless streak - 4.99 ERA, 1.51 WHIP entering Wednesday - against the #Braves pretty much sums up Atlanta's season to this point. #BravesCountry
#Braves Brian Snitker likes Acuña at the 3 spot in the lineup. He doesn’t think that’ll change when Austin Riley comes back next week. “I’ve always kind of envisioned him being that guy.”
Ronald Acuña Jr. says that was one of the best throws of his career. #Braves #BravesCountry

Acuña’s incredible throw confused Spencer Strider because he thought the ball went foul and out of play. He was trying to get a new ball from the umpire and said if that throw were to get away from Nacho, he’d be nowhere near where he needed to be. #BravesCountry #Braves

3-2 count. Runners on 1st and 3rd. 2 outs. Aaron Judge up to bat. Dylan Lee gets out of it. #Braves 7, #Yankees 3, bot 7
Somewhere in heaven, Dave Parker & Roberto Clemente are applauding.
Holy shit!!! Ronald Acūna just had one of the greatest throws I’ve ever seen.
A Nick Allen throwing error puts Giancarlo Stanton on third after hitting a two-run double. Oswald Peraza now at third for Stanton. In comes Dylan Lee. #Braves 7, #Yankees 2, top 7
Spencer Strider's night is done: 6 IP, 3 H, 0 ER, 3 BB, 8 K #Braves 7, #Yankees 0, top 7
#Braves Ronald Acuña’s day so far: Double Triple This throw #BravesCountry
Jazz Chisholm Jr. almost just hit his 4th homer of the week here at Truist Park. This guy is on fire. #Braves 6, #Yankees 0, top 4
The Braves honored Max Fried with a video in between innings in his return to Atlanta. ❤️ (Via: @ASchmidtSports)
The #Braves just honored Max Fried here at Truist Park. He’s dealing with a blister and won’t pitch this weekend vs. Atlanta. The Braves are probably really happy about that.
#Braves Spencer Strider has struck out 4 of 6 #Yankees he's faced thus far.
All-Stars Matt Olson and Ronald Acuna Jr. both have RBI doubles here in the first inning. Ozzie Albies just brought Acuna home on a sac-fly. 3-0 #Braves, bot 1 #BravesCountry
#Braves starters vs. Yankees: Friday: Spencer Strider (3-7, 3.94 ERA) Saturday: Joey Wentz (2-1, 6.32 ERA) Sunday: Grant Holmes (4-8, 3.77 ERA)
