Ronald Acuña Jr. injury
On July 10 2021, Braves All-Star outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. suffered an ACL injury. I was the AJC's lone reporter that weekend and covered the injury, reaction and everything surrounding the loss of one of the Braves' best players.
This was the initial breaking news story that I updated with comments after the game and then again once we received the diagnosis.
Here is the game story from the Saturday game, with the main focus being Acuna's injury.
About 12 hours after receiving the diagnosis that he would require season-ending surgery on his ACL, Ronald Acuna spoke with the media.
Here is just a simple transcription of everything Ronald Acuna said in the press conference after his injury.
