Braves' Ronald Acuna: Sitting amid slump

Acuna is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Mariners.

Acuna is out of the lineup for the first time since being activated from the 10-day injured list Aug. 15. His absence comes in the middle of an 0-for-20 stretch at the plate, during which Acuna is also striking out at a 38.1 percent clip. In Acuna's place, Jake Fraley will patrol right field.
