Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. exited Friday night’s game after suffering a calf injury. After an awkward run out of the batter’s box, Acuña began to feel discomfort and was removed in the same inning. His exit, however, was just a precaution.

“I feel good,” Acuña said postgame. “It just felt like a cramp. We’ll just see how I come in tomorrow and how I’m feeling and if I can play.
