Ronald Acuna Jr. scored his 140th run of 2023 - the most in the majors in 16 years - after tripling, Matt Olson hit his 53rd homer and Ozzie Albies went deep for one of his four hits, lifting the NL East champion Atlanta Braves past the last-place Washington Nationals 10-3 on Thursday night.
WASHINGTON — Ronald Acuña Jr. scored his 140th run of 2023 - the most in the majors in 16 years - after tripling, Matt Olson hit his 53rd homer and Ozzie Albies went deep for one of his four hits, lifting the NL East champion Atlanta Braves past the last-place Washington Nationals 10-3 on Thursday night.
The left-hander started on opening day in Washington but left after just 3 1/3 innings that day and wound up on the injured list with a strained left hamstring. His triple to left off rookie Jake Irvin got the Braves going in the third, and Albies brought him home with a double to right. Acuña is the first player to reach 140 runs since 2007, when Alex Rodriguez got to 143.
Olson’s majors-best 53rd homer came on reliever Cory Abbott’s first pitch of the eighth. Albies hit a two-run shot off Abbott in the ninth.
