Ronald Acuña Jr. is out of the Atlanta Braves lineup for Wednesday’s series finale against Boston due to a sore groin. Acuña had started six straight games. Brian Snitker said that Acuña felt some soreness during Tuesday’s game and was checked on by the team’s training staff, but stayed in for the remainder of the game. He woke up Wednesday still sore and the Braves are going to play it safe.
“Just treat him up for a couple days and check him out Friday when he comes in and see where we’re at,” Snitker said of Acuña.
