Braves News: Acuña Jr. can’t be stopped

Ronald Acuña Jr. is unbelievable. After two home runs in two games on Monday, Acuña decided to hit two in one game last night. The 20-year-old superstar has hit 8 in his last 8 games and with a homer tonight could become the first Brave to hit one in six straight games.

Brandon McCarthy had another rough season with injuries abound and has decided that this season will be his last. At the ripe age of 35 and with plenty of grey in his hair there is no shame in Brandon calling it a career in favor of spending time with his family.
