Atlanta Braves third baseman Austin Riley has been named as the team nominee for the Heart and Hustle Award.
This is the second time that Riley has been nominated for the award - the first time came the season prior in 2023.
Riley batted .256 with 19 home runs and 56 RBIs across 110 games for the Braves in 2024. However, those numbers don’t reflect the production he provided. Sixteen of his home runs and 36 of his RBIs came after June 13 (57 games). This would put him on pace for 45 home runs and 102 RBIs over 162 games.
