This is one of 3,168 outfield assists across the last 5 seasons (including playoffs). It is the only one to exceed 300 feet in the air (301, to be exact). He’s a cyborg.

Acuña did a postgame in the interview room, and afterward he said he wanted to give a shout out to #Braves coaches, and particularly hitting coach Tim Hyers, for helping him develop better plate discipline that's enabled him to raise his walk rate, including 3 tonight.

For those of us who grew up in the 1980s, there were two teams who were always on. The Braves (TBS) and the Cubs (WGN). By default, Dale Murphy and Ryne Sandberg became part of our childhood. A piece of all of us is lost now. #RIPRyno
