Braves' Ronald Acuna hits lead-off home runs in both games of Monday's doubleheader
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna led off both games of Monday's doubleheader against the Marlins with home runs.
What It Means:
Acuna hit a 3-1 pitch for his 16th home run of the season to lead off the bottom of the first inning in the first game. He then took the first pitch of the second game deep for his 17th homer of the season.
We project the National League Rookie of the Year candidate to hit five more home runs by the end of the season. If he keeps up this type of hitting, however, he might blow those projections out of the water.
