We all need to keep in mind just how quickly things can change and how Major League Baseball’s shortened season has heightened that situation. The Atlanta Braves came into Sunday’s doubleheader struggling offensively but broke out in a big way behind strong performances by Ronald Acuña Jr. and Freddie Freeman.
Acuña homered as part of a five run fifth in game one of the doubleheader then crushed two more in game two. Freeman went 6-for-8 Sunday and finished a single shy of the cycle in Game 2.
As far as Acuña goes, he has shown signs of late of shaking out of his slow start and was able to bust out in a big way Sunday.
