Ronald Acuna Jr. (26), the leading hitter of the Atlanta Braves in the Major League Baseball (MLB), achieved 40 steals ahead of the All-Star break.
Acuna Jr. started as the first batter 토토사이트 and right fielder in an away game against the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field in Cleveland, Ohio on the 4th (Korea Standard Time). Acuna Jr. succeeded in stealing a base during the match against follow-up hitter Aji Albies after hitting a single in the top of the third inning without a runner with one out, with Atlanta leading 1-0.
It was Acuna Jr.’s 40th stolen base this season. With 21 home runs as of the 4th, he made 20 home runs and 40 steals in the first half. Already, 20 home runs and 35 steals are the first records ever.
MLB has 40 home runs and 40 steals, but no player has yet recorded 30 home runs and 60 steals. Considering that the number of games in the second half is less than in the first half, it is predicted that Acuna Jr. can do it.
He is also cruising in the MVP race. Acuna Jr. won all the National League (NL) “Player of the Week” announced by the MLB Secretariat on the 4th. He batted .474 with five home runs and seven RBIs in six games he played last week.
