Ronald Acuña Jr. could be back in the Atlanta Braves lineup as early as Friday night after rehab swings, potentially giving the division-leading Braves a huge boost as they face the Baltimore Orioles — a team that just snapped Boston’s winning streak. Acuña, who’s been sidelined since June with a hamstring strain, was tearing up the stat sheet before his injury with seven homers and 15 steals in just 53 games. Atlanta’s ace pitcher, with a sub-4 ERA and over 90 innings pitched, faces an Orioles starter who’s held opponents to a respectable average. This matchup could be pivotal as both teams chase momentum — and fans are already buzzing for Acuña’s return.
