Acuña Shatters Records in Braves’ Dominant Win | Chattanooga News

Ronald Acuña Jr. just shattered baseball history, becoming the fastest player ever to hit 200 home runs and steal 200 bases—all in just 904 games—during Atlanta’s crushing 9-0 win over Washington. After Sean Murphy’s three-run homer broke a scoreless tie, Acuña delivered his 14th homer of the season in the 7th inning and added his 22nd stolen base, turning heads against a Nationals team that couldn’t muster much offense. The game was delayed over an hour by rain, and the Braves’ pitching shut down the Nats entirely. With Chris Sale set to start Friday’s series opener against the Phillies, and the Nats heading west for a Dodgers showdown, Acuña’s historic night sets the stage for even bigger things.
