Acuna Mania

It comes as no surprise that Braves rookie stud, Ronald Acuna, Jr., would be leading off this edition of the Social Media Wrap-Up.

Acuna has been En Fuego since the moving to the lead-off spot after the All-Star Break. With all the attention Nats rookie sensation Juan Soto is garnering, Acuna keeps winning the one-up game.

Yes, Juan Soto hit a home run. Thanks for the reminder MLB Twitter. Well, guess what, Acuna hit TWO to lead of each game of a Double Header on Monday; homering in his 4th straight game.

And of course, it’s not just the offense that’s bringing in the attention for Acuna. His home run robbing catch of a Matt Adams would-be long ball was fun to watch. And then, in the second game of the Double Header, he nails a runner trying to go first to third.
