Acuna Returns, Navarro Shuts It Down | Atlanta Braves News

Ronald Acuna Jr. is swinging again—playing five innings as DH in minor league rehab, showing promising signs as he recovers from his hamstring strain. Though he went 0-for-3 with two fly outs and a strikeout, he did reach base on an error and was pinch-run for, mirroring his last rehab appearance. Meanwhile, in the DSL, pitcher Cesar Navarro tossed a rare complete-game shutout, allowing just two hits and one walk over seven innings—his stellar control lighting up the league and marking the first such performance by the DSL Braves in nearly 10 years. While the FCL didn’t win, Acuna’s return is the headline, and Navarro’s gem is a historic moment for the young pitching prospect.
