Watch: Ronald Acuna helped off field after ugly leg injury
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna suffered a frightening-looking knee injury in Sunday’s game against the Boston Red Sox.
Acuna was running through first base when he appeared to twist his knee and had to come out of the game.
Oh no.

Acuna is one of baseball’s brightest young players and has made an immediate impact for the Braves since his callup, hitting five home runs since making his big league debut. Hopefully the injury isn’t as serious as it looks.
