Braves All-Star OF Ronald Acuña Jr. leaves with Achilles tendon tightness and will go to IL

Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. was removed from Tuesday night's loss at Kansas City with tightness in his right Achilles tendon and will be placed on the 10-day injured list. Acuña experienced the discomfort after chasing down a ball in right field. “It's an Achilles thing, it's going to take a while,” manager Brian Snitker said after the Braves fell 9-6 to the Royals.
