Nationals Suffer 8-4 Road Loss
The Atlanta Braves defeated the Washington Nationals, 8-4, in National League action at Truist Park. Ronald Acuna Jr. pulled his weight. The 11-year veteran was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times. The win puts Atlanta at 60-89.

The Nationals had been locked in a 4-4 tie with the Braves going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 23-year old left fielder Carlos Pacheco came to the plate. Pacheco hit a bases-clearing double on a first pitch slider from Washington hurler Daniel Juarez. It was Pacheco's 1st double of the year.

Postgame, Braves manager Chris Honsa complimented Acuna Jr.. "No question about it. Sabanero Soy was terrific."
