Ronald Acuña Jr., the Atlanta Braves standout, continues to shine in his historic 2023 season. In a recent matchup against the St. Louis Cardinals, Acuña hammered two colossal home runs, raising his season total to an impressive 34.

This latest display of power also marked the 12th multi-home run game for Acuña in the leadoff spot, surpassing NL MVP co-favorite Mookie Betts of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who has 10 such games. Betts, while trailing Acuña in this particular statistic, holds the all-time record with 26 multi-home run games, as noted by Sarah Langs of MLB.

Ronald Acuña Jr.’s remarkable season has been filled with numerous accomplishments. During a recent series in Los Angeles against Betts and the Dodgers, Acuña’s performance was nothing short of extraordinary, helping the Braves secure a 3-1 series win.

In the first game of that series, Acuña launched a Grand Slam, making him the first player in MLB history to reach 30 home runs and 60 stolen bases in a single season, with more than a month left in the 2023 campaign. Throughout the series, Acuña added two more moonshot home runs to his tally. While the Dodgers claimed Game 4, the Braves dominated Games 2 and 3.

As the postseason approaches, the Braves, aiming to make amends for last year’s disappointing playoff run, hope to regain their championship form. With only a few weeks left in the regular season, Ronald Acuña Jr. and his Atlanta teammates are striving to peak at the right moment—a feat that Acuña already appears to have achieved.
