Braves rookie outfielder Michael Harris II has only be in the big leagues for a couple months, and he’s already showing baseball wisdom well beyond his years. That was on display during Tuesday night’s game between the Braves and Red Sox.
Ronald Acuña Jr. wowed the baseball world with his phenomenal slide into home plate in the 11th inning to give the Braves a two-run lead. Acuña was able to evade the tag from Kevin Plawecki by sneaking a hand in on the opposite side of the plate despite the throw beating him. And real time, it simply looked like an incredible individual effort from one of baseball’s most gifted players.
