Lets just get it out of the way so we can move on. The Atlanta Braves suffered a painful 7-6 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals Thursday night. Ronald Acuña Jr. had a big game going 3-for-4 at the plate with a two-run home run in the ninth inning and made a four-star catch in center field, yet the conversation after the game centered once again on his lack of hustle out of the box on a ball that caromed off the right field wall. Acuña carried his bat halfway down the line before kicking it into high gear but was forced to stop at first with a single.
