    Can't stomach another 1 game defeat. I'd rather we play Bo5 and get swept than have the entire season rest on 1 game.

    Justin Upton in April and August?

    Chipper had 7 HR in 7 days. 7/2-7/9/99

    Upton 6 in 7 days. 4/1 - 4/8/13

    Andruw 7 in 7 days. 6/11-6/18/05

    Acuna 8 in 6 days 8/8-8/14/18 (but included a DH, didn't check on the other guys)

    Braves have won 13/17.

    They had lost 13 of the previous 18.

    So that evened out.

    I'm sure Soto is a nice guy and all but he just got left in the dust in the ROY race though!

    That was a Harper jersey though? Couldn't read the name but it was #17.

    Acuna reminds me of the scene in the Avengers where Tony Stark tells Loki “We have a Hulk”.

    Acuna is certainly the Hulk right now.

    One of the guys on MLB network made a good point. The Phillies are in trouble if Acuna stays hot. They don’t have anyone that can match what he can do.

    IMO Freddie and Acuna could carry this team to the WS
