In honor of Opening Day for the Braves, hereโs one of my favorite moments from the 2025 season:
Ronald Acuรฑa Jr. hits a 467-foot BOMB on the first pitch he sees since returning from injury. Chills every time.
Today is a great day to elect Andruw Jones to the Hall of Fame.
For 10 straight seasons, the #Braves center fielder won a Gold Glove and reigned as perhaps the greatest defender in MLB history.
Willie Mays even called him the best ever. Solid reference.
